Quotes from Margot Bickel

The wind sings of our nostalgia and the starry sky ignores our dreams. Each snow flake is a tear that fails to trickle Silence is full of the unspoken, of deeds not performed, of confessions to secret love, and of wonders not expressed. Our truth is hidden in our silence, Yours and mine.

A poem by Margot Bickel A little peace within the last hours of the almost bygone day a little silence between the days so that the nascent yesterday does not get in the past and tomorrow is lived for today

It is too simple to pet a stray dog then watch it run under a car and say it wasn't mine It is too simple to admire a rose then pick it and forget to put water in the vase It is too simple to use a person for loving without love then leave him standing alone and say I don't know him anymore It is too simple to know one's flaws then live them at great cost to others and say that's just the way I am It is too simple the way we sometimes live our lives for after all life simply is a serious matter
