Quote by Jane Taylor Starwood

“Soon you catch your first glimpse of a vineyard basking in the sun, its broad leaves silently turning sunlight into sugar, ripening vitis vinifera, the European grapes that make the world’s finest wines. For a moment you might imagine you’ve been mysteriously wafted to the French countryside, but no, this is the East End of Long Island, the most exciting new wine region in North America. You’ve reached your destination, but your journey of discovery has barely begun”

“Once upon a time, in a part of America called the North Shore of Long Island, Not far from New York, Lived a very small girl on a very large estate. The house on the grounds had many rooms, and many servants, And in the garage were many cars, And out on the water were many boats. There were gardeners in the gardens, And a chauffeur to drive the cars, And a boatman who hauled out the boats in the fall And scraped their bottoms in winter And put them back in the spring. From the windows of her room The girls could look out on an indoor tennis court And an outdoor tennis court; an indoor swimming pool And an outdoor swimming pool And a pool in the garden for goldfish. Life was pleasant here, For this was as close to heaven as one could get On Long Island. But then one day the girl grew up And went beyond the walls of the grounds And found the world.”

“When we are wounded it's as if something is stolen from us. We adapt and accept a particular truth that sets us up to behave a certain way in the future when we are faced with a situation that reminds us of the past. What we know about ourselves becomes influenced by our perception of these events. We associate and project the qualities of those who hurt us onto others unfairly. Every situation may appear similar, but people are not. Look at the people that love you and not the reminder of ghosts.”

“The human mind registers a false perception of physical reality from the occurrences that make an impression upon the senses. Human consciousness is an orderly organization of human perceptions of the structure and ratio of physical reality, of which we attempt to share by communicating our perceptions and justifiable true beliefs with other people. The infinite fallibility of the human mind, along with the inability of any human being to know with certainty if anyone else shares an identical perception of reality, makes some personal truths forever elusive and uncommunicable.”
