We experience moments absolutely free from worry. These brief respites are called panic. |
Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face. |
Panic is a sudden desertion of us, and a going over to the enemy of our imagination. |
People become attached to their burdens sometimes more than the burdens are attached to them. |
Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it gets you nowhere. |
You can't wring your hands and roll up your sleeves at the same time. |
People gather bundles of sticks to build bridges they never cross. |
I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief.For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free. |
Nerves provide me with energy. They work for me. It's when I don't have them, when I feel at ease, that I get worried. |
If you want to test your memory, try to recall what you were worrying about one year ago today. |
