I wish every one in the world was as warm and sheltered as we are tonight.

I like to hear a storm at night. It is so cosy to snuggle down among the blankets and feel that it can't get at you.

It was rapture enough just to sit there beside him in silence, alone in the summer night in the white splendor of moonshine, with the wind blowing down on them out of the pine woods.

A house isn't a home without the ineffable contentment of a cat with its tail folded about its feet. A cat gives mystery, charm, suggestion.

Why did dusk and fir-scent and the afterglow of autumnal sunsets make people say absurd things?

Since ever the world was spinning And till the world shall end You've your man in the beginning Or you have him in the end, But to have him from start to finish And neither nor borrow nor lend Is what all of the girls are wanting And none of the gods can send

Good night, belovedest. Your sleep will be sweet if there is any influences in the wishes of your own.
