Zitat des Tages von Sarah Orne Jewett:
The thing that teases the mind over and over for years, and at last gets itself put down rightly on paper - whether little or great, it belongs to Literature.
Tact is after all a kind of mind reading.
It is the people who can do nothing who find nothing to do, and the secret to happiness in this world is not only to be useful, but to be forever elevating one's uses.
Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.
The road was new to me, as roads always are, going back.
When I was as you are now, towering in the confidence of twenty-one, little did I suspect that I should be at forty-nine, what I now am.
God would not give us the same talent if what were right for men were wrong for women.
