Famous quotes containing the words road to, road and/or recovery:

    “With only one life to live we can’t afford to live it only for itself. Somehow we must each for himself, find the way in which we can make our individual lives fit into the pattern of all the lives which surround it. We must establish our own relationships to the whole. And each must do it in his own way, using his own talents, relying on his own integrity and strength, climbing his own road to his own summit.”
    —Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    “A novel is a mirror carried along a high road. At one moment it reflects to your vision the azure skies at another the mire of the puddles at your feet. And the man who carries this mirror in his pack will be accused by you of being immoral! His mirror shews [sic] the mire, and you blame the mirror! Rather blame that high road upon which the puddle lies, still more the inspector of roads who allows the water to gather and the puddle to form.”
    —Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    “With any recovery from morbidity there must go a certain healthy humiliation.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
