“Everything that was broken has
forgotten its brokenness. I live
now in a sky-house, through every
window the sun. Also your presence.

it is. Every day has something in
it whose name is Forever.”
― Mary Oliver, Felicity

“Living in a piecemeal and accelerated space and time, he often has trouble acknowledging his own physiognomy; left without a sexual, subjective, or moral identity, this amphibian is a being of boundaries, a borderline, or a "false self"--a body that acts, often without even the joys of such performative drunkenness. Modern man is losing his soul, but he does not know it, for the psychic apparatus is what registers representations and their meaningful values for the subject. Unfortunately, that darkroom needs repair.”
― Julia Kristeva, The Portable Kristeva

“Negativity is positively bad for your health.”
― Eleanor Brownn

“Concerns buzzed like flies in her head, and she swatted them with prayers.”
― Francine Rivers, Her Mother's Hope
