“For pity's sake, you are lying in a coffin, Mrs. Crofton. Unless you wish to be buried, I strongly suggest that you resurrect yourself immediately.”
“I suppose the word "unbearable" is a lie by definition. Unless you kill yourself immediately after using it.”
“Mrs LINDE: When you've sold yourself once for the sake of others, you don't do it second time.”
“Self-pity is the bestiality of emotions: it absolutely disgusts people. When you're feeling pity for yourself, and somebody says to you 'You think maybe it's time for the pity party to be over? You should stop feeling sorry for yourself and try to think positive,' it makes you wish you could saw their head off.”
“You do not immortalize the lost by writing about them. Language buries, but does not resurrect.”
“The first person you have to resurrect is yourself”
