Amelia Barr Zitate

That is the great mistake about the affections. It is not the rise and fall of empires, the birth and death of kings, or the marching of armies that move them most. When they answer from their depths, it is to the domestic joys and tragedies of life.

Das ist der große Fehler bei den Zuneigungen. Es ist nicht der Aufstieg und Fall von Imperien, die Geburt und der Tod von Königen oder der Marsch von Armeen, die sie am meisten bewegen. Wenn sie aus ihrer Tiefe antworten, geht es um die häuslichen Freuden und Tragödien des Lebens.

Leaders thrive when they feel creatively empowered, when they trust the people around them, when their confidence is swelling. Leaders make mistakes when they lose that same confidence, when they're fretting about their power base, when they're reacting instead of acting.

We know about every massacre that has taken place close to the present, but the ones in the distant past are like trees falling in the forest with no one to hear them.

Perhaps grief is not about empty, but full. The full breath of life that includes death. The completeness, the cycles, the depth, the richness, the process, the continuity and the treasure of the moment that is gone the second you are aware of it.
