study the way of life in the northern indigenous villages of Australia. One of the villagers told her that the night someone dies, everyone in the village moves a piece of furniture or something else into their yard. The next day, when the bereaved family wakes up and looks outside, they see that everything has changed since their loved one died — not just for them but for everyone. That's how these communities witness, and mirror, grief.

Additional quotes by David Kessler

We can't tell a person who is mentally ill or addicted to use his brain to help himself recover, because his brain is the diseased organ. Because such people cannot do what is necessary to help themselves, professional help is necessary but often hard to find, or expensive, or not very good, or some combination of all of the above.
