To be deeply in love is, of course, a great liberating force.

I would like to achieve a state of inner spiritual grace from which I could function and give as I was meant to in the eye of God.

I want a singleness of eye, a purity of intention, a central core to my life that will enable me to carry out these obligations and activities as well as I can.

Woman must come of age by herself... She must find her true center alone.

The shape of my life is, of course, determined by many things; my background and childhood, my mind and its education, my conscience and its pressures, my heart and its desires.

... once you get beyond the crust of the first pang it is all the same and you can easily bear it. It is just the transition from painlessness to pain that is so terrible.

So many things we love are you!
