“[P]ride has no intrinsic substance, being no more than the name given to the soul devouring itself.

“Trees and flowers were often more meaningful to me than people. They always helped me, consoled me, giving the soul a chance to believe once more than the world was beautiful and sensible, that the mad absurdities and cruelties of men were against the laws of Nature and the Universal Mind; that sooner or later violence would suffer utter defeat on this Earth. No words collected in books were more effectively convincing to me than foliage, clouds, rippling waters, rain.” PeopleMenWorldGivingMindBelieveBookSoulEarthBeautifulLawSufferingWaterNatureChanceViolenceTreeFlowerRainUniversalMadDefeatCloudsMeaningfulCrueltySensibleSooner Or LaterAbsurdityConvincingLaws Of NatureFoliage Author:Svetlana Alliluyeva
