“Why do women want to dress like men when they’re fortunate enough to be women? Why lose femininity, which is one of our greatest charms? We get more accomplished by being charming than we would be flaunting around in pants and smoking. I’m very fond of men. I think they are wonderful creatures. I love them dearly. But I don’t want to look like one. When women gave up their long skirts, they made a grave error…” ― Tasha Tudor

If there is one thing worse than the modern weakening of major morals, it is the modern strengthening of minor morals.
G.K. Chesterton (via catherine-of-alexandria)
Progress is providence without God. That is, it is a theory that everything has always perpetually gone right by accident. It is a sort of atheistic optimism, based on an everlasting coincidence far more miraculous than a miracle.
G.K. Chesterton (via catherine-of-alexandria)
“You will be surprised how you can climb out of your worries, bead by bead, up to the very throne of the Heart of Love itself.”— Ven Fulton Sheen
