I read this book many years ago and loved it. I've also just come out of a 5 day retreat, so I feel like many of these quotes have a particular immediacy. Time to think, to be still, to be alone are necessary for me, even though alone time isn't always easy ("... boredom and panic are the two devils the solitary must combat"). Thanks for the reminder, Emily.

Wow. Thank you for sharing this, Emily. A few of these really hit the nail on the head for me.
I picked this book up years ago, also secondhand, but haven’t read it yet. Thank is for sharing—moving it up in the TBR queue ; )
