I am comforted by life's stability, by earth's unchangeableness. What has seemed new and frightening assumes its place in the unfolding of knowledge. It is good to know our universe. What is new is only new to us.
Pearl S. BuckTo serve is beautiful, but only if it is done with joy and a whole heart and a free mind.
Pearl S. BuckIn a democracy such as ours the leading minds seldom achieve a place of permanent influence. And the men who sit in Congress or even in the White House are usually not our leading minds. They are not the thinkers. Still less have they time for reflection.
Pearl S. BuckNothing in life is as good as the marriage of true minds between man and woman. As good? It is life itself.
