We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be.
From May Sarton
There is only one real deprivation... and that is not to be able to give one's gifts to those one loves most.
The garden is growth and change and that means loss as well as constant new treasures to make up for a few disasters.
Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light nothing flowers.
Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.
Most people have to talk so they won't hear.
Self-respect is nothing to hide behind. When you need it most it isn't there.
Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self.
One must think like a hero to behave like a merely decent human being.
True feeling justifies whatever it may cost.
