Elisabeth Elliot
“I am convinced that the human heart hungers for constancy. In forfeiting the sanctity of sex by casual, nondiscriminatory "making out" and "sleeping around," we forfeit something we cannot well do without. There is dullness, monotony, sheer boredom in all of life when virginity and purity are no longer protected and prized.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Passion and Purity

Elisabeth Elliot
“Women still dream and hope, pin their emotions on some man who doesn't reciprocate, and end up in confusion.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Passion and Purity

Haruki Murakami
“Nothingness means there's absolutely nothing, so maybe there's no need to understand it or imagine it.”
Haruki Murakami, After Dark

Elisabeth Elliot
“Of all things difficult to rule, none were more so than my will and affections.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Passion and Purity

Eckhart Tolle
“The first thing to remember is this: As long as you make an identity for yourself out of the pain, you cannot become free of it. As long as part of your sense of self is invested in your emotional pain, you will unconsciously resist or sabotage every attempt that you make to heal that pain. Why? Quite simply because you want to keep yourself intact, and the pain has become an essential part of you. This is an unconscious process, and the only way to overcome it is to make it conscious. To suddenly see that you are or have been attached to your pain can be quite a shocking realization. The moment you realize this, you have broken the attachment. The pain-body is an energy field, almost like an entity, that has become temporarily lodged in your inner space. It is life energy that has become trapped, energy that is no longer flowing. Of course, the pain-body is there because of certain things that happened in the past. It is the living past in you, and if you identify with it, you identify with the past. A victim identity is the belief that the past is more powerful than the present, which is the opposite of the truth. It is the belief that other people and what they did to you are responsible for who you are now, for your emotional pain or your inability to be your true self. The truth is that the only power there is is contained within this moment: It is the power of your presence. Once you know that, you also realize that you are responsible for your inner space now — nobody else is — and that the past cannot prevail against the power of the Now. So identification prevents you from dealing with the pain-body.”
Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
