Let's not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it. ~Vincent Van Gogh, 1889 One's suffering disappears when one lets oneself go, when one yields even to sadness. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupry, Southern Mail, 1929, translated from French by Curtis Cate Memory is always faulty. Emotions are always true. ~Author Unknown

The feeling is often the deeper truth, the opinion the more superficial one. ~Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare, Guesses at Truth, by Two Brothers, 1827 The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain. ~Kahlil Gibran
