There was a door to which I found no key: There was the veil

Summary

This quote implies the existence of something unknown or inaccessible. The door represents a barrier, an opportunity or knowledge that remains out of reach; despite efforts made to unlock it, there is no key to open it. Similarly, the veil symbolizes a concealment, a hidden truth or understanding that an individual cannot penetrate. It suggests the frustration and limitation of not being able to access or comprehend certain elements or experiences in life, emphasizing the presence of barriers and unanswered questions that create a sense of mystery and unattainability for the individual.

Everyone, at some point in their lives, wakes up in the middle of the night with the feeling that they are all alone in the world, and that nobody loves them now and that nobody will ever love them, and that they will never have a decent night's sleep again and will spend their lives wandering blearily around a loveless landscape, hoping desperately that their circumstances will improve, but suspecting, in their heart of hearts, that they will remain unloved forever. The best thing to do in these circumstances is to wake somebody else up, so that they can feel this way, too.

There is nothing I can think of that is quite as isolating as this.

Asian food is very easy to like because it hits your mouth very differently than European food does. In European food, there may be two things to hit - maybe sweet and salty, maybe salty-savory, but Asian kind of works around, plus you have that distinct flavor that's usually working in Asian food.

Our chief usefulness to humanity rests on our combining power with high purpose. Power undirected by high purpose spells calamity, and high purpose by itself is utterly useless if the power to put it into effect is lacking.
