Alain de Botton
“We don't really learn anything properly until there is a problem, until we are in pain, until something fails to go as we had hoped ... We suffer, therefore we think.”
Alain de Botton, How Proust Can Change Your Life

“Do not try to save
the whole world
or do anything grandiose.
Instead, create
a clearing
in the dense forest
of your life
and wait there
patiently,
until the song
that is yours alone to sing
falls into your open cupped hands
and you recognize and greet it.
Only then will you know
how to give yourself
to this world so worthy of rescue.”
Martha Postlethwaite

Maria Popova
“The richest relationships are often those that don’t fit neatly into the preconceived slots we have made for the archetypes we imagine would populate our lives—the friend, the lover, the parent, the sibling, the mentor, the muse. We meet people who belong to no single slot, who figure into multiple categories at different times and in different magnitudes. We then must either stretch ourselves to create new slots shaped after these singular relationships, enduring the growing pains of self-expansion, or petrify.”
Maria Popova, Figuring

Alain de Botton
“One of the best protections against disappointment is to have a lot going on.”
Alain de Botton

The School of Life
“The goal of therapy is not a perfect relationship; it is to make some level of disconnection bearable to both parties.”
The School of Life, Affairs
