“No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell.”
― Carl Jung

“We must come down from our heights, and leave our straight paths, for the byways and low places of life, If we would learn truths by strong contrasts; and in hovels, in forecastles, and among our own outcasts in foreign lands, see what has been wrought upon our fellow-creatures by accident, hardship, or strife.”
― Richard Henry Dana Jr., Two Years Before the Mast and Twenty-Four Years After
