And that next day, he was in the black mood, what we call the swartgalligheid, which is the black gall.

...Every ego so far from being a unity is in the highest degree a manifold world, a constellated heaven, a chaos of forms, of states and stages, of inheritances and potentialities.

Even the best of us shares this delusion. Herman Hesse

I should like to sleep like a cat, with all the fur of time, with a tongue rough as flint, with the dry sex of fire; and after speaking to no one, stretch myself over the world, over roofs and landscapes, with a passionate desireto hunt the rats in my dreams. Pablo Neruda
Amy Tan quote: "If she doesn't speak, she is making a choice. If she doesn't..."

After denuding the trunk, the men left to denude others, and for a time the tree stood blighted, trying to raise its stunted arms, a creature clubbed mute, only its sudden voicelessness making us realize it had been speaking all along. Jeffrey Eugenides
Thomas More quote: "Let them speak as lewdly as they list of me...as long as they..."
Let them speak as lewdly as they list of me...as long as they do not hit me, what am I the worse? Thomas More
Sometimes, life seems to have a higher meaning. Events unfold in uncanny sequences. Long-forgotten acquaintances turn up with news that changes lives. A stranger appears and speaks a few words of wisdom, solving a previously insoluble problem, or something in a recent dream transpires in reality. Suddenly the existence of God seems confirmed.
