What office is there which involves more responsibility, which requires
more qualifications, and which ought, therefore, to be more honourable,
than that of teaching? Harriet Martineau

The sound of people drowning is something I cannot
describe to you -- and neither can anyone else. It's the most dreadful
sound -- and there's a dreadful silence that follows it.
--Eva Hart, Titanic survivor

“Babies are soft. Anyone looking at them can see the tender, fragile skin and know it for the rose-leaf softness that invites a finger's touch. But when you live with them and love them, you feel the softness going inward, the round-cheeked flesh wobbly as custard, the boneless splay of the tiny hands. Their joints are melted rubber, and even when you kiss them hard, in the passion of loving their existence, your lips sink down and seem never to find bone. Holding them against you, they melt and mold, as though they might at any moment flow back into your body.But from the very start, there is that small streak of steel within each child. That thing that says "I am," and forms the core of personality.In the second year, the bone hardens and the child stands upright, skull wide and solid, a helmet protecting the softness within. And "I am" grows, too. Looking at them, you can almost see it, sturdy as heartwood, glowing through the translucent flesh.The bones of the face emerge at six, and the soul within is fixed at seven. The process of encapsulation goes on, to reach its peak in the glossy shell of adolescence, when all softness then is hidden under the nacreous layers of the multiple new personalities that teenagers try on to guard themselves.In the next years, the hardening spreads from the center, as one finds and fixes the facets of the soul, until "I am" is set, delicate and detailed as an insect in amber.” -Diana Gabaldon, Dragonfly in Amber

I can't think of anything more frustrating than the idea that after studying for many years, you might start to forget everything that you have ever learned, and end up in a state where you remember nothing - TheAlaniDragonRising

Do you have terrible nightmares, so you find it impossible to get a good night's sleep? Wake up to yourself. Don't you have terrible nightmares, and don't you find it impossible to have a good night's sleep because your mind is driving you insane. Relax instead and remind yourself they are not real. - TheAlaniDragonRising.

If I become insane now or in the future, I think I would like it to be thought of like this:
“Men have called me mad; but the question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence– whether much that is glorious– whether all that is profound– does not spring from disease of thought– from moods of mind exalted at the expense of the general intellect.” - Edgar Allan Poe
