Mary Francis Kennedy Fisher:

“To be happy, you must have taken the measures of your powers, tasted the fruits of your passion, and learned your place in the world.”

“It seems to me now, that the only real thing to leave in the world is one’s spirit. To me it means that I can leave, for whatever use may be made of it, a kind of residue. I believe that is good. I hope so.

It is the leaving of me, murking up the atmosphere, smogging the air, sprinkling a sort of mist over things, so that perhaps they will twinkle a bit.”
