“LONELINESS I too have known loneliness. I too have known what it is to feel misunderstood, rejected, and suddenly not at all beautiful. Oh, mother earth, your comfort is great, your arms never withhold. It has saved my life to know this. Your rivers flowing, your roses opening in the morning. Oh, motions of tenderness!”
― Mary Oliver, Blue Horses: Poems

“I was born to join in love, not hate - that is my nature.”
― Sophocles, Antigone

“You don't know what your life is, nor what you're doing, nor who you are.”
― Euripides, The Bacchae

“Footfalls echo in the memory, down the passage we did not take, towards the door we never opened, into the rose garden.”
― T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets
