Brooks quotes George Eliot's Adam Bede: "[I]t is these people---amongst whom your life is passed---that it is needful you should tolerate, pity, and love: it is these more or less ugly, stupid, inconsistent people whose movement of goodness you should be able to admire---for whom you should cherish all possible hopes, all possible patience." (184) I think I need to read Adam Bede.

From pp. 100-101: When other people are in trauma, "the sensitive person grants the sufferer the dignity of her own process. She lets the sufferer define the meaning of what is going on. She just sits simply through the nights of pain and darkness, being practical, human, simple, and direct."
