More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Is there anything as horrible as starting on a trip? Once you're off, that's all right, but the last moments are earthquake and convulsion, and the feeling that you are a snail being pulled off your rock.
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
Certain springs are tapped only when you're alone.

Beauty cannot disguise nor music melt A pain undiagnosable but felt.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
