I look back on my life like a good day's work, it was done and I am satisfied with it.
Grandma Moses
I have written my life in small sketches, a little today, a little yesterday . . . I look back on my life a good day's work, it was done and I feel satisfied with it. I made the best out of what life offered.
Grandma Moses
Now that I am ninety-five years old, looking back over the years, I have seen many changes taking place, so many inventions have been made. Things now go faster. In olden times things were not so rushed. I think people were more content, more satisfied with life than they are today. You dont hear nearly as much laughter and shouting as you did in my day, and what was fun for us wouldnt be fun now.... In this age I dont think people are as happy, they are worried. Theyre too anxious to get ahead of their neighbors, they are striving and striving to get something better. I do think in a way that they have too much now. We did with much less.
