Winter Diary

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or diary:

“You ask if there is no doctrine of sorrow in my philosophy. Of acute sorrow I suppose that I know comparatively little. My saddest and most genuine sorrows are apt to be but transient regrets. The place of sorrow is supplied, perchance, by a certain hard and proportionately barren indifference. I am of kin to the sod, and partake of its dull patience,—in winter expecting the sun of spring.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“...I’m a slave to this leaf in a diary that lists what I must do, what I must say, every half hour.”
—Golda Meir (1898–1978)
