“The music left only this bad hurt in her, and a blankness. She could not remember any of the symphony, not even the last few notes. She tried to remember, but no sound at all came to her. Now that it was over there was only her heart like a rabbit and this terrible hurt.” HeartLastsRememberLeftSoundHurtTerribleNotesEmptinessRabbitsDetachmentSymphonyNumbnessBlankness Book:The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter Source: The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter
“Maybe freedom really is nothing left to lose. You had it once in childhood, when it was okay to climb a tree, to paint a crazy picture and wipe out on your bike, to get hurt. The spirit of risk gradually takes its leave. It follows the wild cries of joy and pain down the wind, through the hedgerow, growing ever fainter. What was that sound? A dog barking far off? That was our life calling to us, the one that was vigorous and undefended and curious.” PainJoySpiritLeftSoundLosesHurtOur LivesGrowingRiskTreeCrazyChildhoodDogCryWindCallingOkayPaintCuriousClimbsBikeWipeVigorousJoy And PainHedgerows Author:Peter Heller

“It may sound strange, but many champions are made champions by setback. They are champions because they've been hurt. Their experience moved them, and they pulled out this fighting spirit, making them what they are. Sometimes in life, God gives us a difficulty in order to bring out the fighting spirit. Everything that happens to you can happen for good if you have this spirit. The essential thing in life is not in the conquering, but in the fight.” IfsGivingMayMadeSometimesHappensLife IsSpiritOrderFightingSportsSoundLeadershipHurtStrangeEssentialsDifficultyMovedConquerChampionThings In LifeFighting SpiritSetbackSometimes In LifeBeen HurtChampions Are Made Author:Bob Richards
