“for whenever men are right they are not young”
“Career now....Men, whenever.”
“Young men think old men are fools; but old men know young men are fools.”
“may my heart always be open to littlebirds who are the secrets of livingwhatever they sing is better than to knowand if men should not hear them men are old may my mind stroll about hungryand fearless and thirsty and suppleand even if it's sunday may i be wrongfor whenever men are right they are not young and may myself do nothing usefullyand love yourself so more than trulythere's never been quite such a fool who could failpulling all the sky over him with one smile”
“Whenever a young thing wants to be free minus serious thought, she gets pregnant and then gets married. Voilà!”
“To keep your marriage brimming, with love in the wedding cup, whenever you're wrong, admit it; whenever you're right, shut up.”
