More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
there is no aristocracy of grief. Grief is a great leveler.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It is only framed in space that beauty blooms only in space are events, and objects and people unique and significant and therefore beautiful.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
If you surrender completely to the moments as they pass, you live more richly those moments.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
How hard it is to have the beautiful interdependence of marriage and yet be strong in oneself alone.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Marriage is tough, because it is woven of all these various elements, the weak and the strong. In love-ness is fragile for it is woven only with the gossamer threads of beauty. It seems to me absurd to talk about happy and unhappy marriages.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
The ball of rumor and criticism, once it starts rolling, is difficult to stop.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Grief can't be shared. Everyone carries it alone. His own burden in his own way.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I think one must do the thing -- whatever it is (and it changes from time to time) -- that unites you to the flowing stream of the world. At any price, one must do it first. Otherwise one can do nothing, nothing at all. One is out of touch, out of grace.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
The intellectual is constantly betrayed by his vanity. Godlike he blandly assumes that he can express everything in words whereas the things one loves, lives, and dies for are not, in the last analysis completely expressible in words.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It is not restful, it is not possible to talk wholeheartedly to more than one person at a time. You can't really talk with a person unless you surrender to them, for the moment (all other talk is futile). You can't surrender to more than one person a moment.
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
One can never pay in gratitude one can only pay 'in kind' somewhere else in life.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It is terribly amusing how many different climates of feelings one can go through in one day.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It isn't for the moment you are struck that you need courage, but for that long uphill climb back to sanity and faith and security.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Beauty cannot disguise nor music melt A pain undiagnosable but felt.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It is only in solitude that I ever find my own core.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Those fields of daisies we landed on, and dusty fields and desert stretches. Memories of many skies and earths beneath us - many days, many nights of stars.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Why is it that you can sometimes feel the reality of people more keenly through a letter than face to face?
