More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Flowers always have it - poise, completion, fulfillment, perfection . . .
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Love is a force. . . . It is not a result it is a cause. It is not a product. It is a power, like money, or steam or electricity. It is valueless unless you can give something else by means of it.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Marriage should, I think, always be a little bit hard and new and strange. It should be breaking your shell and going into another world, and a bigger one.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

I find the weight of air/Almost too great to bear.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
The only real security is not in owning or possessing, not in demanding or expecting, not in hoping, even. Security in a relationship lies neither in looking back to what it was, nor forward to what it might be, but living in the present and accepting it as it is now.
