One thing I feel clear about is that it's important not to let your life live you. Otherwise, you end up at forty feeling you haven't really lived. What have I learned? Perhaps to live now, so that at fifty I won't look back upon my forties with regret.

The path to decision may be hard because it leads into the territory of both finiteness and groundlessness—domains soaked in anxiety.

If one is to learn to live with the dead, one must first learn to live with the living!

The pain is there; when you close one door on it, it knocks to come in somewhere else.

Marriage and its entourage of possession and jealousy enslave the spirit.

The act of revealing oneself fully to another and still being accepted may be the major vehicle of therapeutic help.

...the more unlived your life, the greater your death anxiety. The more you fail to experience your life fully, the more you will fear death.
