...love brought you here. If you trusted love this far, don't panic now. - James Baldwin

People who remember court madness through pain, the pain of the perpetually recurring death of their innocence; people who forget court another kind of madness, the madness of the denial of pain and the hatred of innocence; and the world is mostly divided between madmen who remember and madmen who forget.

You can not describe anything without betraying your point of view, your aspirations, your fears, your hopes.

People are not, for example, terribly anxious to be equal (equal, after all, to what and to whom?) but they love the idea of being superior.
