there is no sin punished more implacably by nature than the sin of resistance to change.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Yesterday's fairy tale is today's fact. The magician is only one step ahead of his audience.

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?
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
... writing letters is thinking, just as talking to you is thinking.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Only love can be divided endlessly and still not diminish.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
there is no aristocracy of grief. Grief is a great leveler.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I would like to achieve a state of inner spiritual grace from which I could function and give as I was meant to in the eye of God.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
When one is a stranger to oneself, then one is estranged from others, too. If one is out of touch with oneself, then one cannot touch others. Only when one is connected to one's own core, is one connected to others. And for me, the core, the inner spring, can best be re-found through silence.
