“Child of the pure unclouded brow
And dreaming eyes of wonder!
Though time be fleet, and I and thou
Are half a life asunder,
Thy loving smile will surely hail
The love-gift of a fairy-tale.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“Every life and every childhood is filled with frustrations; we cannot imagine it otherwise, for even the best mother cannot satisfy all her child’s wishes and needs. It is not the suffering caused by frustration, however, that leads to emotional illness, but rather the fact that the child is forbidden by the parents to experience and articulate this suffering, the pain felt at being wounded.”
—Alice Miller (20th century)
“The sun proceeds unmoved
To measure off another day
For an approving God.”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“It is the heart which experiences God, and not the reason. This, then, is faith: God felt by the heart, not by the reason.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
