"The greatest friend of the soul is the unknown. Yet we are afraid of the unknown because it lies outside our vision and our control. We avoid it or quell it by filtering it through our protective barriers of domestication and control. The normal way never leads home." -John O'Donohue.

"When we get out of the glass bottles of our ego and when we escape like squirrels turning in the cages of our personality and get into the forests again, we shall shiver with cold and fright but things will happen to us so that we do not know ourselves. Cool, undying life will rush in, passion will make our bodies taut with power. We shall stamp our feet with new power and old things will fall down, we shall laugh and institutions will curl up like burnt paper." D. H. Lawrence.
