"Two people who know they do not understand each other, breeding children whom they do not understand and who will never understand them."

T.S. Eliot, The Cocktail Party

"Everyone’s alone—or so it seems to me.They make noises, and think they are talking to each other;They make faces, and think they understand each other,And I’m sure they don’t. Is that delusion?Can we only loveSomething created in our own imaginations?"

T.S. Eliot, The Cocktail Party

"Your burden is not to clear your conscienceBut to learn how to bear the burdens on your conscience."
