Ellin Pollachek  The Human Conditon
 
Everybody, everybody everywhere, has his own movie going, his own scenario, and everybody is acting his movie out like mad, only most people don't know that is what they're trapped by, their little script. - Tom Wolfe
 
A friend of mine, whose religious observance allowed her to feel superior to me, asked me: "I have four children. What have you accomplished?" My answer was simple. "I chose not to commit suicide." We all have our challenges. Compassion is important.
