Jacqueline Harpman
“I was forced to acknowledge too late, much too late, that I too had loved, that I was capable of suffering, and that I was human after all.”
Jacqueline Harpman, I Who Have Never Known Men

“One finds, through developing oneself, that the rectification of relationships will not be achieved by telling others what to do, but by following the path that is correct for oneself.”
Carol K. Anthony, Love, An Inner Connection, Based on Principles Drawn from the I Ching

Jean Baudrillard
“By crossing into a space whose curvature is no longer that of the real, nor that of truth, the era of simulation is inaugurated by a liquidation of all referentials - worse: with their artificial resurrection in the systems of signs, a material more malleable than meaning, in that it lends itself to all systems of equivalences, to all binary oppositions, to all combinatory algebra. It is no longer a question of imitation, nor duplication, nor even parody. It is a question of substituting the signs of the real for the real, that is to say of an operation of deterring every real process via its operational double, a programmatic, metastable, perfectly descriptive machine that offers all the signs of the real and shortcircuits all its vicissitudes.”
Jean Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulation

C.G. Jung
“Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.”
C.G. Jung

C.G. Jung
“An old alchemist gave the following consolation to one of his disciples: “No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you.”
Carl Jung
