For a moment I wondered if I were not going to love humanity. But, after all, it was their Sunday, not mine.

Well, now, if little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you little by little. If suddenly you forget me do not look for me, for I shall already have forgotten you.

Thinking has, many a time, made me sad, darling; but doing never did in all my life…My precept is, “Do something, my sister, do good if you can; but, at any rate, do something.”

I waited for my life to start for years, standing at bus stops looking into the curved distance thinking each bus was the wrong bus; or lost in books where I would travel without luggage from one page to another; where the only breeze was the rustle of pages turning, and lives rose and set in the violent colors of suns.

Linda Pastan,“Waiting for My Life” (via misswallflower)
