“Some days, 24 hours is too much to stay put in, so I take the day hour by hour, moment by moment. I break the task, the challenge, the fear into small, bite-size pieces. I can handle a piece of fear, depression, anger, pain, sadness, loneliness, illness. I actually put my hands up to my face, one next to each eye, like blinders on a horse.” I CanMomentsHandsEyePainFacesNextHoursChallengesBreakToo MuchPiecesSadnessLonelinessTasksHorseSizeIllnessHandleBitesHands UpSmall PiecesBlinders Author:Regina Brett
“As for women that do not think their own safety worth their thought, that impatient of their present state, resolve as they call it to take the first good Christian that comes; that runs into matrimony, as a horse rushes into battle; I can say nothing to them, but this, that they are a sort of ladies that are to be pray'd for among the rest of distemper'd people; and to me they look like people that venture their whole estates in a lottery where there is a hundred thousand blanks to one prize.” PeopleThinkingFirstsLooksI CanStatesWholeRunningChristianWomenPrayingBattleThousandHundredHorseSafetyPrizeResolveEstatesVentureImpatientLotteryMatrimonyGood Christian Book:The works of Daniel De Foe [ed.] by W.

“Still I should paint my own places best; painting is with me but another word for feeling, and I associate "my careless boyhood" with all that lies on the banks of the Stour; those scenes made me a painter, and I am grateful; that is, I had often thought of pictures of them before ever I touched a pencil, and your picture ['The White Horse'] is one of the strongest instance I can recollect of it.” ShouldMadeStillsI CanFeelingsLyingMy OwnWhitePaintingSceneHorseGratefulPaintPainterInstanceTouchedStrongestAssociatesPencilsCarelessI Am GratefulBoyhoodWhite Horse Author:John Constable
