Elizabeth von Arnim Quotes
Rooms in one of those spacious old houses with the large windows facing the sun, and plenty of books—if I were that abstracted but happy form of reptile called a bookworm, which I believed I am prevented from being only by my sex, the genus, I am told, being persistently male, I would take care to spend at least one of my life’s winters in Putbus.

It is easy to speak words of love, or to meditate lovingly upon those people with whom you are in harmony.
