Betty Friedan
“The only way for a woman, as for a man, to find herself, to know herself as a person, is by creative work of her own.”
Betty Friedan, The Feminine Mystique

Leo Tolstoy
“Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them.”
Leo Tolstoy

“The view, like champagne, amplified all of the emotions that were offered to it.”
Michelle de Krester

Hans-Georg Gadamer
“To reach an understanding in a dialogue is not merely a matter of putting oneself forward and successfully asserting one’s own point of view, but being transformed into a communion in which we do not remain what we were.”
Hans-Georg Gadamer

Kazuo Ishiguro
“I keep thinking about this river somewhere, with the water moving really fast, and these two people in the water, trying to hold on to each other, holding as hard as they can, but in the end it's just too much. The current's too strong. They've got to let go, drift apart. That's how I think it is with us. It's a shame, Cath, because we've loved each other all our lives, but in the end, we can't stay together forever.”
Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go
