Lane

Famous quotes containing the word lane:

    The question is whether personal freedom is worth the terrible effort, the never-lifted burden and risks of self-reliance.
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

    That way of life against which my generation rebelled had given us grim courage, fortitude, self-discipline, a sense of individual responsibility, and a capacity for relentless hard work.
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

    Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
