To free us from the expectations of others, to give us back to ourselves-- there lies the great, singular power of self-respect.

Joan Didion






If people could regard the events of their own lives with more open minds, they would frequently discover that they did not really desire the things they failed to obtain.

Andre Maurois






An illusion which makes me happy is worth a verity which drags me to the ground.

Christopher Martin-Wieland






If you keep your emotions locked in a box, then when you want to open it one day you'll find that they're gone.

M.D. Arnold
