Anne Lamott

“It cost me a great deal to regain my footing. Now I am free to become who I truly am.” Attributed to Carl Jung. p. 71.

“I was terribly erratic: feeling so holy and serene some moments that I was sure I was going to end up dating the Dalai Lama. Then the grief and craziness would hit again and I would be in Broken Mind, back in the howl.” p. 72.

“Whatever you use to keep the pain at bay robs you of the flecks and nuggets of gold that feeling grief will give you.” p. 72.
