Katherine Mansfield
What can you do if you are thirty and, turning the corner of your own street, you are overcome, suddenly, by a feeling of bliss - absolute bliss - as though you'd suddenly swallowed a bright piece of that late afternoon sun and it burned in your bosom, sending out a little shower of sparks into every particle into every finger and toe?
Katherine Mansfield
The truth is friendship is every bit as sacred and eternal as marriage.
Katherine Mansfield
Courage is like a disobedient dog, once it starts running away it flies all the faster for your attempts to recall it.
