“My soul is calm and clear, like the mountains in the morning. But they think I am cold, and a mocker with terrible jests.”

“Every morning I walk like this aroundthe pond, thinking: if the doors of my heart ever close, I am as good as dead.”

“The nights were blinding cold and casket black and the long reach of the morning had a terrible silence to it.”

“I am a winter person, never happier than on a clear, frosty morning.”

“...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...”

“Cause I am strong and I can prove itAnd I got my dreams to see me throughIt's just a mountain, I can move itAnd with faith enough there's nothing I can't doAnd I can see the light of a clear blue morningAnd I can see the light of brand new dayI can see the light of a clear blue morningAnd everything's gonna be all rightIt's gonna be okay [lyrics from "Light of a Clear Blue Morning"]”
