“We penetrated deeper and deeper into the heart of darkness”
“The more you approach infinity, the deeper you penetrate terror”
“the heart breaks and breaks and lives by breaking.It is necessary to go through dark and deeper dark and not to turn.from “The Testing Tree”
“We have sought for firm ground and found none. The deeper we penetrate, the more restless becomes the universe; all is rushing about and vibrating in a wild dance.”
“If we rebuke our heart by a calm, mild remonstrance, with more compassion for it than passion against it and encourage it to make amendment, then repentance conceived in this way will sink far deeper and penetrate more effectually than fretful, angry, stormy repentance.”
“It felt like there was a dark spot in my heart. Like a bruise. And it was getting deeper and wider with every lie I told.”
