quotations for thE WEEK
The quest for certainty has produced a fascination with reducing everything to its basic components; everything must have an answer. Only the poets are unafraid of ambiguity; everyone else goes to experts. … The helping professions have been turned into certain-tizers. At least at Delphi they had the good sense not to be too specific
. - Edwin Friedman
We are our injuries as much as our successes
- Emily Brontë
