Katherine Mansfield

Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinions of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth.

I am treating you as my friend asking you share my present minuses in the hope I can ask you to share my future pluses.

The pleasure of all reading is doubled when one lives with another who shares the same books.

By health I mean the power to live a full, adult, living, breathing life in close contact with... the earth and the wonders thereof - the sea - the sun.

- Katherine Mansfield
