More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
the issue of war or peace is an issue that concerns not only experts on Foreign Affairs but every citizen of the United States.
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
For sleep, one needs endless depths of blackness to sink into daylight is too shallow, it will not cover one.

I can conceive of 'falling in love' over and over again. But 'marriage,' this richness of life itself, I cannot conceive of having again - or with anyone else. In this sense 'marriage' seems to me indissoluble.

there is no sin punished more implacably by nature than the sin of resistance to change.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Don't wish me happiness - I don't expect to be happy it's gotten beyond that, somehow. Wish me courage and strength and a sense of humor - I will need them all.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I think best with a pencil in my hand.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Rivers perhaps are the only physical features of the world that are at their best from the air.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I feel we are all islands - in a common sea.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
There is no harvest for the heart alone. The seed of love must be eternally re-sown.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
What a crippling art writing is, no body to it, no craft, really. It's all in the mind and you never see it or feel it -- only sometimes hear it. It uses only such a small part of man. I wish I were a sculptor.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches. If suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise, since everyone suffers. To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness and the willingness to remain vulnerable.
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.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
