Quotes
- “Intense, unexpected suffering passes more quickly than suffering that is apparently bearable; the latter goes on for years and, without our noticing, eats away at our soul, until, one day, we are no longer able to free ourselves from the bitterness and it stays with us for the rest of our lives.”

- “Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.”
