Quote by James Hollis

“I am not a mechanism, an assembly of various sections. And it is not because the mechanism is working wrongly, that I am ill. I am ill because of the wounds to the soul, to the deep emotional self and the wounds to the soul take a long, long time, only time can help and patience, and a certain difficult repentance, long difficult repentance, realisation of life's mistake, and the freeing of oneself from the endless repetition of the mistake which mankind at large has chosen to sanctify.”
