“A wind blew, from what quarter I know not, but it lifted the half-grown leaves so that there was a flash of silver-grey in the air. It was the time between the lights, when colours undergo their intensification and purples and golds burn in window panes like the beat of an excitable heart, when for some reason the beauty of the world revealed and yet soon to perish ... the beauty of the world which is so soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.”
― Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own

“It is a pity that Man cannot be at the same time impressive and truthful.”
― E.M. Forster, Aspects of the Novel

“But to grieve; it's to die and be alive at the same time. The most absolute, overpowering experience you can feel, therefore. Sometimes I swear we weren't constructed to go through such a thing; it's too much - your body damn near self-destructs with all that heaving and surging.”
― Philip K. Dick

“The essential ingredient of successful deep and meaningful psychotherapy is love. ... Intensive psychotherapy in many ways is a process of reparenting.”
― M. Scott Peck, The Road Less Travelled
