Why it should be such an effort to write to the people one loves I can't imagine. It's none at all to write to those who don't really count.

Bless you, my darling, and remember you are always in the heart - oh tucked so close there is no chance of escape - of your sister.

To long for everything: sorrow; to accept everything: joy.

Regret is an appalling waste of energy, and no one who intends to be a writer can afford to indulge in it.

Better to write twaddle, anything, than nothing at all.

Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy, you can't build on it it's only good for wallowing in.

I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
