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.

Why do progress and beauty have to be so opposed?
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Only love can be divided endlessly and still not diminish.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
When we start at the center of ourselves, we discover something worthwhile extending toward the periphery of the circle. We find again some of the joy in the now, some of the peace in the here, some of the love in me and thee which go to make up the kingdom of heaven on earth.

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.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Travel Far, Pay No Fare... a book can take you anywhere.
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
I think best with a pencil in my hand.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
To be deeply in love is, of course, a great liberating force.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Rivers perhaps are the only physical features of the world that are at their best from the air.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Geniuses were like storms or cyclones, pulling everything into their path, sticks and stones and dust.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I do not like talking casually to people - it does not interest me - and most of them are unwilling to talk at all seriously.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It is nice to think how one can be recklessly lost in a daisy!
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
My passport photo is one of the most remarkable photographs I have ever seen- no retouching, no shadows, no flattery-just stark me.
