How to choose a favorite quote? This from #EdithWharton is at my desk (trimmed to fit #Bksky): "In spite of challenges, one can remain alive long past the usual date of disintegration if one is unafraid of change, insatiable in intellectual curiosity, interested in big things & happy in small ways"
“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.” - Edith Wharton #womenbelong #quoteoftheweek #edithwharton #monthofradiance

The money was hers.... But she wished she could have got it in some other way-she hated the thought of it as one more instance of the perverseness with which things she was entitled to always came to her as if they had been stolen.

"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that receives it." ― Edith Wharton
It is tempting to retreat into darkness when the world feels divided.
Optimism is a discipline. Kindness is resistance. Choose to spread light today.

image of a hand-written letter, faded black ink on beige paper. Text: "which letter has since been answered mentally though not (ha! ha!) PENtally"
kinda reassuring to know that even one of the best US prose authors was not above enjoying bad puns.
I present to you, Pulitzer-prize winning novelist #EdithWharton writing that a letter to Sara Norton "has since been answered mentally though not (ha! ha!) PENtally" 😅
A 1924 copy of Here and Beyond casually asking what happens after death, and somehow making it feel…worse.
