How terrible it is to be woman...but only because of men.

Softly the evening came /with the sunset/.

A single conversation across the table with a wise man is better than ten years mere study of books.

Behind the clouds is the sun still shining.

Into each life some rain must fall.

The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain.

My soul is full of longing for the secret of the sea

It takes less time to do a thing right, than it does to explain why you did it wrong.

Never believe that the fiction writing life makes sense.... It's insanity by definition.

Love is just a word untill you and that someone who comes along give it meaning

I insist on group singing of the names of the Lord.
