Ruth has friends like other people have wardrobes. I mean that there's someone for every occasion.

When it's new and important, you have to rest in between times. And anyway, even when I like a person there is a weariness that comes. I can be with someone and everything is fine and then all of a sudden it can wash over me like a sickness, that I need the quiet of my own self. I need to unload my head and look at what I've got in there so far. See it. Think what it means. I always need to come back to being alone for a while.

I don't think men try to make women be like them, but I think women try to make men be like them, a lot.

I will come back as a little breeze. You will feel me on your face, and you will know that I am still listening. So you can still talk to me.

There are some things you never say good-bye to

Abstracts are real and time is a lie, it cannot be measured when one moment can expand to hold everything.

For all it's problems and difficulties, life is mostly a wonderful experience, and it is up to each person to make the most of each day. I hope you are successful in your life, but look to the heavens and the earth and especially to other people to find your real wealth. Wherever I am, wherever you go, know that my love goes with you.
