Now learn
by chuckofish
“Now learn,” she commanded herself, “learn at last that anywhere you may expect grace.” And she was filled with happiness like a girl at this new proof that the traits she lived for were everywhere, that the world was ready.”
–Thornton Wilder, The Bridge of San Luis Rey

What a lovely passage with which to start my day. Thank you!
I bought a nice hardback copy of this book at an estate sale last weekend. I will re-read it soon. I had written this quote down when I re-read it about 15 years ago–what a great book!
