Quote by Nenia Campbell

“We’ve grown up, both of us, and it’s been years since her hero worship of me was extinguished like a dying star. Now she looks at me like someone who would burn her world down instead of saving it. But if she looked at me again the way I remember—the way she used to—I think I’d bleed myself dry to staunch the flames.”

“Edward: But I'm obsessed by the thought of my own significance. Rielly: Precisely. And I could make you feel important, And you would imagine it a marvelous cure; And you would go on, doing such amount of mischief As lay within your power -- until you came to grief. Half of the harm that is done in this world Is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm--but the harm does not interest them Or they do not see it, or they justify it Because they are absorbed in the endless struggle To think well of themselves.”

“The purpose of spiritual life is not to create some special state of mind. A state of mind is always temporary. The purpose is to work directly with the most primary elements of our body and our mind, to see the ways we get trapped by our fears, desires and anger, and to learn directly our capacity for freedom.”
