Quote by Lisa Rosenberg from Adventure on Joyland Road

“I believe there isn’t a “better” way for a loved one to die—whether expected or sudden, there is no get-out-of-grief-free card. As far as I can tell, you don’t walk away from grief but find a way to walk with it.”

“Weary with my weariness, white last moon, sole regret, not even. To be dead, before her, on her, with her, and turn, dead on dead, about poor mankind, and never have to die any more, from among the living. Not even, not even that. My moon was here below, far below, the little I was able to desire. And one day, soon, soon, one earthlit night, beneath the earth, a dying being will say, like me, in the earthlight, Not even, not even that, and die, without having been able to find a regret.”

“Grief is the beast with the sharpest claws. It’s sacred. It’s consuming. It’s unstoppable. You, my rarest reader, must already fathom how it cannot be cast aside or defeated, for this book would not have found you otherwise. The beast will wound you deeply. There will be times when you are certain it will kill you. And yet, you will endure. Until the pain you deemed a punishment becomes your reward, guiding you to a realm of peace that will be only yours and yours alone – just as the beast that delivered you there. Excerpt from The Book of Revenge, Müneccimbaşı Sufi Chelebi’s Journals of Mystical Phenomena”

“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”
