The whistle is always waiting to be blown, and in some ways, it gets me to do better work.
Anne LamottMy idea of absolute happiness is to be in bed on a rainy day, with my blankie, my cat, and my dog.
Anne LamottThe earth is rocky and full of roots; it's clay, and it seems doomed and polluted, but you dig little holes for the ugly shriveled bulbs, throw in a handful of poppy seeds, and cover it all over, and you know you'll never see it again - it's death and clay and shrivel, and your hands are nicked from the rocks, your nails black with soil.
Anne LamottYour problem is how you are going to spend this one odd and precious life you have been issued. Whether you're going to spend it trying to look good and creating the illusion that you have power over people and circumstances, or whether you are going to taste it, enjoy it and find out the truth about who you are.
