― Bessel van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

“No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown allies will come and seek you.”
― Carl Jung

“Tom experienced the death of Alex as if part of himself had been forever destroyed—the part that was good and honorable and trustworthy.”
