Anne Morrow Lindbergh

One can never pay in gratitude one can only pay 'in kind' somewhere else in life.

A simple enough pleasure surely to have breakfast alone with one's husband but how seldom married people in the midst of life achieve it.

Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee and just as hard to sleep after.

Lost time is like a run in a stocking. It always gets worse.

It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach.

Him that I love, I wish to be free -- even from me.
