Irvin D. Yalom
“How can you live now without building new regrets? What do you have to change in your life?”
― Irvin D. Yalom, Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Terror of Death

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Grown-up people do not know that a child can give exceedingly good advice even in the most difficult case.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot

Irvin D. Yalom
“I believe we should confront death as we confront other fears. We should contemplate our ultimate end, familiarize ourselves with it, dissect and analyze it, reason with it, and discard terrifying childhood death distortions. Let's not conclude that death is too painful to bear, that the thought will destroy us, that transiency must be denied lets the truth render life meaningless. Such denial always exacts a price - narrowing our inner life, blurring our vision, blunting our rationality. Ultimately self-deception catches up with us.”
― Irvin D. Yalom, Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Terror of Death
