Barbarous the stalking tide;
Her, nor balked nor sated
But plunged into the wide
Area of mental ire,
Lay at her wandering side.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“Self-esteem is as important to our well-being as legs are to a table. It is essential for physical and mental health and for happiness.”

—Saul Bellow (b. 1915)
