Laura Ingalls Wilder
In these days when we feed those who are not hungry, we are stealing from those who are starving, even though the food is our own.
Laura Ingalls Wilder

Laura Ingalls Wilder
Money hasn't any value of its own it represents the stored up energy of men and women and is really just someone's promise to pay a certain amount of that energy.
Laura Ingalls Wilder
All those golden autumn days the sky was full of wings. Wings beating low over the blue water of Silver Lake, wings beating high in the blue air far above it . . . bearing them all away to the green fields in the South.
Laura Ingalls Wilder
Why should we need extra time in which to enjoy ourselves? If we expect to enjoy our life, we will have to learn to be joyful in all of it, not just at stated intervals when we can get time or when we have nothing else to do.
Laura Ingalls Wilder
It is not the things you have that make you happy. It is love and kindness and helping each other and just plain being good.
