We are all humiliated by the sudden discovery of a fact which has existed very comfortably and perhaps been staring at us in private while we have been making up our world entirely without it.

It was not that she was out of temper, but that the world was not equal to the demands of her fine organism.

If I really care for you, if I try to think myself into your position and orientation, then the world is bettered by my effort at understanding and comprehension. If you respond to my effort by trying to extend the same sympathy and understanding to others in turn, then the betterment of the world has been minutely but significantly extended. We want people to feel with us, more than to act for us.

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

Will not a tiny speck very close to our vision blot out the glory of the world, and leave only a margin by which we see the blot?

Death is the king of this world: 'Tis his park where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain are music for his banquet.
