More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Guys kick friendship all over just like a soccer, nonetheless it does not appear to crack. Girls deal with it like glass and it goes to items.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
How one hates to think of oneself as alone. How one avoids it. It seems to imply rejection or unpopularity.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Forsythia is pure joy. There is not an ounce, not a glimmer of sadness or even knowledge in forsythia. Pure, undiluted, untouched joy.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
One can get just as much exultation in losing oneself in a little thing as in a big thing. It is nice to think how one can be recklessly lost in a daisy.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
People talk about love as if it were something you could give, like an armful of flowers.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Why is life speeded up so? Why are things so terribly, unbearably precious that you can't enjoy them but can only wait breathless in dread of their going?
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Parting is inevitably painful, even for a short time. It's like an amputation, I feel a limb is being torn off, without which I shall be unable to function. And yet, once it is done... life rushes back into the void, richer, more vivid and fuller than before.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
God may want you to be the answer to your own prayer.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
A note of music gains significance from the silence on either side.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Cut asparagus at night - in desperation. When one is very tired one always does one more thing.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Him that I love, I wish to be free -- even from me.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Too many people, too many demands, too much to do competent, busy, hurrying people - It just isn't living at all.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
America, which has the most glorious present still existing in the world today, hardly stops to enjoy it, in her insatiable appetite for the future.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Travel Far, Pay No Fare... a book can take you anywhere.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
There comes a moment when the things one has written, even a traveler's memories, stand up and demand a justification. They require an explanation. They query, 'Who am I? What is my name? Why am I here?
