“Joy, happiness ... we do not question. They are beyond question, maybe. A matter of being. But pain forces us to think, and to make connections ... to discover what has been happening to cause it. And, curiously enough, pain draws us to other human beings in a significant way, whereas joy or happiness to some extent, isolates.” ThinkingWayHumansHas BeensMatterEnoughPainJoyHumanityForceCausesHuman BeingsDrawsHappeningsConnectionsSignificantJoy HappinessEnough Pain Book:Recovering: A Journal Source: Recovering: A Journal
“The greatest love of all is happening to me.. So goes the popular song. It's a great song. It speaks to the heart, and deeply.

“When a trout rising to a fly gets hoooked on a line and finds himself unable to swim about freeely, he begins with a fight which results in struggles and splashes and sometimes an escape. Often, of course, the situation is too tough for him. In the same way the human being struggles with his environment and with the hooks that catch him. Sometimes he masters his difficulties; sometimes they are too much for him. His struggles are all that the world sees and it naturally misunderstands them. It is hard for a free fish to understand what is happening to a hooked one.” WorldWayHumansSometimesHardFightingCoursesLinesHuman BeingsResultsSituationStruggleEnvironmentToo MuchMastersHappeningsToughDifficultyFishesRisingSwimHookHookedTrout Author:Karl A.

Incredible technical things happening, but everybody is still running around jealous, fighting, whacking, cheating. There's got to be something going on! Some kind of change. I'd like to see something starting to happen in that area, with the psychology of the human being and how that changed.” PeopleYearsHumansKindStillsHappensRunningFightingHuman BeingsFictionTechnologyPsychologyEffectsChangedHappeningsAreasDown AndScience FictionIncrediblesStartingThings HappenCheatingJealousRaysBeamLasers Author:Leslie Nielsen

“That's a heavy word, but picking up a newspaper every day, how can you not despair at what's happening in the world, and how we're represented as human beings? The disappointments and corruption are dismaying at every level. And the biggest source of evil is of course religion... Everyone are tearing each other apart in the name of their personal god.
