“One writes not to be read, but to breathe… one writes to think, to pray, to analyze. One writes to clear one’s mind, to dissipate one’s fears, to face answers, doubts, to look at one’s mistakes… in order to retrieve them. One writes to capture and crystallize one’s joy, but also to disperse one’s gloom. Like prayer – you got to it in sorrow more than joy, for help, a road back to grace.”
Anne Morrow Lindbergh (War within and without diaries and Letters of Anne Morrow Lindbergh 1939-1944)

” How wonderful it is to be able to write someone a letter! To feel like conveying your thoughts to a person, to sit at your desk and pick up a pen, to put your thoughts into words like this is truly marvelous.”

” If only there could be an invention that bottled up a memory, like scent. And it never faded, and it never got stale. And then, when one wanted it, the bottle could be uncorked, and it would be like living the moment all over again.”
Daphne du Maurier (Rebecca)
