The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in the kindness of human beings. I am so absorbed in the wonder of earth and the life upon it that I cannot think of heaven and angels.
I don't wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work.
Inside myself is a place where I live all alone and that is where I renew my springs that never dry up.
