Mary Oliver

When it’s over I don’t want to wonder

To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.

Love is when two people know everything about each other and are still friends.

Only a fool argues with a skunk, a mule or the cook.
