More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
The present is passed over in the race for the future the here is neglected in favor of the there. Enjoy the moment, even if it means merely a walk in the country.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
People talk about love as if it were something you could give, like an armful of flowers.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Rivers perhaps are the only physical features of the world that are at their best from the air.

We have so little faith in the ebb and flow of life, of love, of relationships. We leap at the flow of time and resist in terror its ebb. We are afraid it will never return. We insist on permanency, on duration, on continuity when the only continuity possible in life, as in love, is in growth, in fluidity - in freedom.

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
One learns first of all in beach living the art of shedding how little one can get along with, not how much.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
What a commentary on our civilization, when being alone is considered suspect when one has to apologize for it, make excuses, hide the fact that one practices it—like a secret vice!
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Only love can be divided endlessly and still not diminish.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Only when one is connected to one's own core is one connected to others, I am beginning to discover. And, for me, the core, the inner spring, can best be refound through solitude.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Life is a gift, given in trust - like a child.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I had the feeling . . . that my experience was very different from other people’s. (Are we all under this illusion?)
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Only in growth, reform, and change, paradoxically enough, is true security to be found.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
So many things we love are you!
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
People don't want to be understood - I mean not completely. It's too destructive. Then they haven't anything left. They don't want complete sympathy or complete understanding. They want to be treated carelessly and taken for granted lots of times.
