More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Fame is a kind of death because it arrests life around the person in the public eye.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
# I saw the most beautiful cat today. It was sitting by the side of the road, its two front feet neatly and graciously together. Then it gravely swished around its tail to completely encircle itself. It was so fit and beautifully neat, that gesture, and so self-satisfied, so complacent.

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.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Rivers perhaps are the only physical features of the world that are at their best from the air.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Great problems that face the world today in both the private and the public sphere cannot be solved by women – or by men – alone. They can only be surmounted by men and women side by side.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
For happiness one needs security, but joy can spring like a flower even from the cliffs of despair.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Good communication is just as stimulating as black coffee, and just as hard to sleep after.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
My Life cannot implement in action the demands of all the people to whom my heart responds.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It's funny how you can be mad at someone one moment and want to hug them the next.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
If it is a woman's function to give, she must be replenished, too.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Lost time is like a run in a stocking. It always gets worse.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
But I want first of all- in fact, as an end to these other desires- to be at peace with myself.
