Nothing touches a work of art so little as criticism.
This is the miracle that happens every time to those who really love; the more they give, the more they possess of that precious nourishing love from which flowers and children have their strength and which could help all human beings if they would take it without doubting.
I am touched by your beautiful anxiety about life.
There is time only to work slowly There is no time not to love
There are moments in which a rose is more important than a piece of bread
And you suddenly know: It was here! You pull yourself together, and there stands an irrevocable year of anguish and vision and prayer.
