The Great Way is not difficult for those who have no preferences. When love and hate are both absent everything becomes clear and undisguised.

We read poetry because the poets, like ourselves, have been haunted by the inescapable tyranny of time and death; have suffered the pain of loss, and the more wearing, continuous pain of frustration and failure; and have had moods of unlooked-for release and peace. They have known and watched in themselves and others.

Dance, when you're broken open. Dance, if you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you're perfectly free.

Rumi

Marilyn Monroe

Many things about our bodies would not seem to us so filthy and obscene if we did not have the idea of nobility in our heads.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

Friends love misery, in fact. Sometimes, especially if we are too lucky or too successful or too pretty, our misery is the only thing that endears us to our friends.

Erica Jong

Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended.
