Ludwig Bemelmans
“In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines
Lived twelve little girls in two straight lines
In two straight lines they broke their bread
And brushed their teeth and went to bed.
They left the house at half past nine
In two straight lines in rain or shine-
The smallest one was Madeline.”
Ludwig Bemelmans, Madeline

Wallace Stegner
“it is an easy mistake to think that non-talkers are non-feelers.”
Wallace Stegner

Rick Bragg
“Every life deserves a certain amount of dignity, no matter how poor or damaged the shell that carries it.”
Rick Bragg, All Over But the Shoutin'

Wallace Stegner
“Most things break, including hearts. The lessons of life amount not to
wisdom, but to scar tissue and callus.”
Wallace Stegner, The Spectator Bird

Wallace Stegner
“Wisdom. . .is knowing what you have to accept.”
Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose
