“I thought I had found my calling, I thought I'd understood that in order to heal, I could heal others, or at least the other "healable" people, the ones who can be saved - instead of moping because I can't save other people.

― Muriel Barbery, The Elegance of the Hedgehog

“Be of love (a little)
More careful
Than everything”
― E. E. Cummings

― Elizabeth Gilbert, Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage
