My father taught me that a bill is like a crying baby and has to be attended to at once.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
there is no aristocracy of grief. Grief is a great leveler.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
How one hates to think of oneself as alone. How one avoids it. It seems to imply rejection or unpopularity.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I feel I should not be ... so at the mercy of people's regard. And yet - it is the artist's desire for communication too without the answering voice you get so numb you lose faith in your powers to communicate.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Marriage should, I think, always be a little bit hard and new and strange. It should be breaking your shell and going into another world, and a bigger one.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
The plane seems exultant now, even arrogant. We did it, we did it! We're up, above you. We were dependant on you just now, prisoners fawning on you for favors, for wind and light. But now, we are free. We are up! We are off! Like someone singing ecstatically, climbing, soaring- a sustained note of power and joy.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach. One can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
When I cannot write a poem, I bake biscuits and feel just as pleased.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It is not restful, it is not possible to talk wholeheartedly to more than one person at a time. You can't really talk with a person unless you surrender to them, for the moment (all other talk is futile). You can't surrender to more than one person a moment.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Woman must come of age by herself... She must find her true center alone.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
For the most part, we, who could choose simplicity, choose complication.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
When the heart is flooded with love there is no room in it for fear, for doubt, for hesitation.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I had the feeling . . . that my experience was very different from other people’s. (Are we all under this illusion?)
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 each partner loves so completely that he has forgotten to ask himself whether or not he is loved in return when he only knows that he loves and is moving to its music--then, and then only are two people able to dance perfectly in tune to the same rhythm.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I believe that what woman resents is not so much giving herself in pieces as giving herself purposelessly.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
No American can understand the need for time -- that is, simply space to breathe. If you have ten minutes to spare you should jam that full instead of leaving it -- as space around your next ten minutes. How can anything ripen without those 'empty' ten minutes?
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I want to be pure in heart -- but I like to wear my purple dress.
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.
