  • "We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone; only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for a moment that we're not alone." - Orson Welles
  • “As a child I felt myself to be alone, and I am still, because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know.” - C.G. Jung, Memories, Dreams, Reflections
  • “He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words.” - Elbert Hubbard
  • “The past cannot be cured.” - Queen Elizabeth I
  • “There is no refuge from confession but suicide; and suicide is confession.” - Daniel Webster
  • “What happened in the past that was painful has a great deal to do with what we are today.” - William Glasser
  • “Words used carelessly, as if they did not matter in any serious way, often allowed otherwise well-guarded truths to seep through.” - Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul
  • "Some of us think holding on makes us strong, but sometimes it is letting go." - Herman Hesse
  • "There is no greater sorrow than to recall in misery the time when we were happy." - Dante

  • "When people walk away from you, let them go. You shouldn’t have to talk them into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, and coming to see you, because if they really cared about you in the first place; they would not be going anywhere." - Unknown

  • "Our greatest battles are that with our own minds." - Jameson Frank
  • “This “integrating the whole person” thing? Is how unkind people who hurt us manage to stay in our lives for so long. Nobody is all good or all bad. We wouldn’t put up with crappy behavior from people if they didn’t have good qualities, and crappy behavior can come in very charismatic and appealing packages. So our sense of fairness and loyalty and what it means to be a good friend gets turned against us while we work hard to see the whole person but they keep right on being mean. “Why is he doing this?” doesn’t matter. If someone is treating you badly, and you make them aware of the problem and ask them to stop, and they keep going with what they were doing before? That is a strong indicator that you should re-consider having them in your life at all.”
