Failures aren't failures if you learn something from them.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
America, which has the most glorious present still existing in the world today, hardly stops to enjoy it, in her insatiable appetite for the future.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
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.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
So many things we love are you!
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
I believe that true identity is found . . . in creative activity springing from within. It is found, paradoxically, when one loses oneself. Woman can best refind herself in some kind of creative activity of her own.

For it is only framed in space that beauty blooms.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
These bright roofs, these steep towers, these jewel-lakes, these skeins of railroad line - all spoke to her and she answered. She was glad they were there. She belonged to them and they to her.

Image
Women need solitude in order to find again the true essence of themselves.

Image
For relationships, too, must be like islands. One must accept them for what they are here and now, within their limits - islands surrounded and interrupted by the sea, continuously visited and abandoned by the tides. One must accept the serenity of the winged life, of ebb and flow, of intermittency.

Too many people, too many demands, too much to do competent, busy, hurrying people - It just isn't living at all.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
Love is a force.... It is not a result it is a cause. It is not a product it produces.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
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
Image
When the heart is flooded with love there is no room in it for fear, for doubt, for hesitation.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
Good communication is just as stimulating as black coffee, and just as hard to sleep after.

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.

Image
Beauty cannot disguise nor music melt A pain undiagnosable but felt.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Image
We have so little faith in the ebb and flow of life, of love, of relationships. We leap at the flow of time and resist in terror its ebb. We are afraid it will never return. We insist on permanency, on duration, on continuity when the only continuity possible in life, as in love, is in growth, in fluidity - in freedom.

It's funny how you can be mad at someone one moment and want to hug them the next.

The web of marriage is made by propinquity, in the day to day living side by side, looking outward in the same direction. It is woven in space and in time of the substance of life itself.
