Favorite Quotes from the Cottage

Favorite Quotes from the Cottage

"You mustn’t wish for another life. You mustn’t want to be somebody else. What you must do is this:
“Rejoice evermore.
Pray without ceasing.
In everything give thanks.”
I am not all the way capable of so much, but those are the right instructions. -- Wendell Berry from Hannah Coulter

The world is charged with the grandeur of God. -- Gerard Manley Hopkins

It is only with the heart one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye. -- Antoine St. Exupery from The Little Prince

Art is the realization of a permanent idea in an ephemeral form. -- Charles Wagner from The Simple Life

We have deemed all these words necessary in order to explain that we have been traveling more slowly than was predicted; concision is not a definitive virtue, on occasion one loses out by talking too much, it is true, but how much has also been gained by saying more than was strictly necessary. --Jose Saramago from The Stone Raft
