 A house that does not have one warm, comfy chair in it is soulless

 A man with a talent does what is expected of him, makes his way, constructs, is an engineer, a composer, a builder of bridges. It's the natural order of things that he construct objects outside himself and his family. The woman who does so is aberrant. We have to expiate for this cursed talent someone handed out to us, by mistake, in the black mystery of genetics.

 Don't forget that compared to a grownup person every baby is a genius. Think of the capacity to learn! The freshness, the temperament, the will of a baby a few months old!

 Each day, and the living of it, has to be a conscious creation in which discipline and order are relieved with some play and pure foolishness.

 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.

 Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light nothing flowers.

 In the country of pain we are each alone

 In the country of pain we are each alone

 Innocence is not pure so much as pleased, Always expectant, bright-eyed, self-enclosed

 Innocence is not pure so much as pleased, Always expectant, bright-eyed, self-enclosed

 It is the privilege of those who fear love to murder those who do not fear it!

 Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self.

 Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self.

 May we agree that private life is irrelevant? Multiple, mixed, ambiguous at best -- out of it we try to fashion the crystal clear, the singular, the absolute, and that is what is relevant; that is what matters.
