"One day you finally knew what you..." - Quote by Mary Oliver

“Look, hasn't my body already felt like the body of a flower?”

“When loneliness comes stalking, go into the fields, consider the orderliness of the world.”

“I very much wished not to be noticed, and to be left alone, and I sort of succeeded.”

“The very next thing you need to be doing is the thing that terrifies you the most.”

“One cannot leap a chasm in two jumps.”

“Get action. Seize the moment. Man was never intended to become an oyster.”

“Success is choosing to enter the arena of action, determined to give yourself to the cause that will better humanity and last for eternity.”

“I confess I was surprised to find that so many men spent their whole day, ay, their whole lives almost, a-fishing. It is remarkable what a serious business men make of getting their dinners, and how universally shiftlessness and a groveling taste take refuge in a merely ant-like industry. Better go without your dinner, I thought, than be thus everlastingly fishing for it like a cormorant. Of course, viewed from the shore, our pursuits in the country appear not a whit less frivolous.”

“Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet.”
