“When the first time of love is over, there comes a something better still. Then comes that other love; that faithful friendship which never changes, and which will accompany you with its calm light through the whole of life. It is only needful to place yourself so that if it may come, and then it comes of itself. And then everything turns and changes itself to the best.” IfsFirstsMayStillsWholeLightTurnsFriendshipLove IsFirst TimeCalmFaithfulNever ChangeSomething BetterAccompanyAccompany You Author:Fredrika Bremer

“It is quite affecting to observe how much the olive tree is to the country people. Its fruit supplies them with food, medicine and light; its leaves, winter fodder for the goats and sheep; it is their shelter from the heat and its branches and roots supply them with firewood. The olive tree is the peasant's all-in-all.” PeopleCountryLightTreeRootsMedicineFruitWinterHeatBranchesSheepShelterPeasantsSuppliesGoatsOlivesFodderFirewoodOlive TreesFood Medicine Book:Greece and the Greeks: The Narrative of a Winter Residence and Summer Travel in Greece and Its Islands Source: Greece and the Greeks: The Narrative of a Winter Residence and Summer Travel in Greece and Its Islands
