I am made and remade continually. Different people draw different words from me. ~ Virginia Woolf
The Longer We Dwell
The longer we dwell on misfortunes the greater is their power to harm us. ~ Voltaire
What Lies Within Us
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
To Kill A Phantom
It is far harder to kill a phantom than a reality. ~ Virginia Woolf
You’ve Always Had The Power
You’ve always had the power, my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself. ~ L. Frank Baum (The Wizard Of Oz)

Estimated Reading Time
Kindness and Mischief
I believe in kindness. Also in mischief. ~ Mary Oliver
Where My Books Go
All the words that I utter, And all the words that I write,
Must spread out their wings untiring,
And never rest in their flight,
Till they come where your sad, sad heart is,
And sing to you in the night,
Beyond where the waters are moving,
Storm-darkened or starry bright.
~ W. B. Yeats
Saints Everywhere
You meet saints everywhere. They can be anywhere. They are people behaving decently in an indecent society. ~ Kurt Vonnegut
