1 " I went to say no, but I winced as I pulled my tooth out of my lip.
I was absolutely hopeless. In a two minute period my front curls had
started to go straight due to my constant brushing them behind my ears
and I was pretty sure my lip was bleeding. Frustrated I pushed myself off of
the couch with a huff and walked around the glass coffee table to head for
the kitchen.
“I've made you angry.”
“No.”
Darren got up and cut me off in the middle of the room. “Yes, I did.
You're angry with me.”
“No, not with you.”
“Then what's wrong?”
“I'm angry with myself. "

― Kaitlin Scott , For Danny

2 " I’m a keeper of flocks.
The flock is my thoughts
And my thoughts are all sensations.
I think with my eyes and with my ears
And with my hands and feet
And with my nose and mouth.

Thinking about a flower is seeing and smelling it
And eating a piece of fruit is knowing its meaning.

That’s why when on a hot day
I feel sad from liking it so much,
And I throw myself lengthwise on the grass
And shut my hot eyes,
And feeling my whole body lying on reality,
I know the truth and I’m happy. "

― Fernando Pessoa , The Keeper of Sheep

3 " Dining at the rare reason
To get between the circumstance
And start milking the Caesars
For what enters the ears
And is for their eyes to air and advise. "

― Initially NO , Beneath

4 " The sweetest melody that plays
on starry nights and wintry days,
most soothing to my listening ears
and calming to beleaguering fears,
I call a symphony on air―
the song of sweet, still silence rare. "

― Richelle E. Goodrich , Making Wishes: Quotes, Thoughts, & a Little Poetry for Every Day of the Year

5 " Take the blinders from your vision
take the padding from your ears
and confess you've heard me crying
and admit you've seen my tears. "

― Maya Angelou

6 " That lady has a piano.
It’s nice, but it’s not the running of rivers
Or the murmuring trees make ..

Who needs a piano?
It’s better to have ears
And love Nature. "

― Alberto Caeiro , The Keeper of Sheep
