The human heart dares not stay away too long from that which hurt it most. There is a return journey to anguish that few of us are released from making.

I soon realized that no journey carries one far unless, as it extends into the world around us, it goes an equal distance into the world within.

There is no going alone on a journey. Whether one explores strange lands or Main Street or one's own back yard, always invisible traveling companions are close by: the giants and pygmies of memory, of belief, pulling you this way and that, not letting you see the world life-size but insisting that you measure it by their own height and weight.

Lillian Smith

Quote of the day

One of the first signs of the beginnings of understanding is the wish to die. This life appears unbearable, another unattainable. One is no longer ashamed of wanting to die; one asks to be moved from the old cell, which one hates, to a new one, which one will only in time come to hate.
Franz Kafka
