Anne Morrow Lindbergh

"There is no sense to a sacrifice after you come to feel that it is a sacrifice."

Oscar Wilde

“Eternity is really long, especially near the end”

“The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing... not healing, not curing... that is a friend who cares.”

Henri Nouwen

"The fun thing is that no one cares if you mess up. A lot of times, I'm tired and I don't want to go. But when you get there you have a blast."
