    Elizabeth Berg
    “As for mending, I think its good to take the time to fix something rather than throw it away. Its an antidote to wastefulness and to the need for immediate gratification. You get to see a whole process through, beginning to end, nothing abstract about it. You'll always notice the fabric scar, of course, but there's an art to mending. If you're careful, the repair can actually add to the beauty of the think because it is a testimony to its worth.”
    ― Elizabeth Berg, The Art of Mending

    “who knows if the moon's
    a balloon,coming out of a keen city
    in the sky--filled with pretty people?
    ( and if you and I should

    get into it,if they
    should take me and take you into their balloon,
    why then
    we'd go up higher with all the pretty people

    than houses and steeples and clouds:
    go sailing
    away and away sailing into a keen
    city which nobody's ever visited,where

    always
    it's
    Spring)and everyone's
    in love and flowers pick themselves”
