“If I should go before the rest of you
Break not a flower nor inscribe a stone,
Nor when I'm gone speak in a Sunday voice
But be the usual selves that I have known.
Weep if you must,
Parting is hell,
But life goes on,
So sing as well.”
Joyce Grenfell

“Progress everywhere today does seem to come so very heavily diguised as Chaos.”
Joyce Grenfell

“Isn't it odd the way people get sad about happy times just because they are past. I go on enjoying them. Do you?”
Joyce Grenfell, An Invisible Friendship
