"We live in an atmosphere of shame. We are ashamed of everything that is
real about us; ashamed of ourselves, of our relatives, of our incomes,
of our accents, of our opinions, of our experience, just as we are
ashamed of our naked skins." -George Bernard Shaw 1856-1950, Man and Superman Act 1
“It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” ― Epictetus
God does not send us despair in order to kill us, he sends it in order to awaken us to new life. -Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) _Reflections_ [1974], #192
