“What wild undisturbed corners do you leave within you or within your partner, your children, your parents, your closest friends? What is left respectfully and quietly for passive cultivation, for privacy, for the imagination, for discovery, for serendipity, for faith, for secrecy, for grace, for reverence, for the untapped, for the future, for the unknowable and the unknown?”
“Leave to your opinions their own quiet undisturbed development, which, like all progress, must come from deep within and cannot be pressed or hurried by anything.”
“You should express regularly to your wife and children your reverence and respect for her. Indeed, one of the greatest things a father can do for his children is to love their mother.”
“What you can't comprehend within your thoughts will be impossible to make real within your world.”
“No matter where you go or what you do, you live your entire life within the confines of your head.”
“Don't expect to know your husband inside and out within a month of marriage. For a long time you will be making discoveries; file them for future reference.”
