Favorite Things: Enjoying Cherished Collections

“Each item in a collection has its own story, its own memory—the search, the day you bought it, who you were with, the vacation…”

Tricia Guild (British Designer; 1946) & Elizabeth Wilhide (Author & Novelist)

“One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach, One can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few.”

Anne Morrow Lindbergh (American Writer & Aviator; June 22nd, 1906 to February 7th, 2001)

“I know that I will be remembered as authentic and love possessed as BEing in my life in every moment allows me to suck every last drop of wonderfulness this life has offered each one of us as a gift. Snatch it and never let go!”
