I want to really live and breathe the USA.

Christine FeehanAs reason returned to me, memory came with it, and I saw that even on the worst days, when I thought I was utterly and completely miserable, I was nevertheless, and nearly all the time, extremely happy.

Yes, that had been true; but each minute, when I stayed without moving in a corner of the room, the cool of the night and the stability of the ground made me breathe and rest on gladness.

Suhayl SaadiI do feel like L.A. has a very supportive and collaborative energy. I felt that in New York too but also there's so much space here! You can have a home studio.

Alex WinstonIn the home we make certain distinctions about functions of rooms and corridors; we do not deliver the groceries straight into the baby's crib. In hospitals we do not take the food trolleys right through the operating chamber, and we rarely have the recreation room next to the convalescent room. We sort out the functions. We have to sort out the functions of the city and the streams of traffic and re-create arterial systems that allow us to breathe ... the shape, pattern and sense of community which you expect if it were a home.
Barbara Ward, Baroness Jackson of LodsworthWe need a new apologetic, geared to the needs of today, which keeps in mind that our task is not to win arguments but to win souls...

The weight, although less heavy, seems then all the more unbearable.
Alexis de TocquevilleYoga is a metaphor for life. You have to take it really slowly. You can't rush. You can't skip to the next position.
