Our lives are mostly a constant evasion of ourselves, and of our visible, sensible world.
T. S. EliotI must tell you that I should really like to think there's something wrong with me- Because, if there isn't, then there's something wrong with the world itself-and that's much more frightening! That would be terrible. So I'd rather believe there is something wrong with me, that could be put right.
T. S. EliotWe fight to keep something alive rather than in the expectation that anything will triumph.
