This world is not for the sensitive, to whom living is like walking on broken glass with soft, tender feet. Therefore, kindness is a pair of shoes.

The vastest things are those we may not learn.<br /> We are not taught to die, nor to be born,<br /> Nor how to burn<br /> With love.<br /> How pitiful is our enforced return<br /> To those small things we are the masters of.<br /> --Mervyn Peake
