Quotes About Unhappiness
At one point, trying to explain her unhappiness, Sanna was to say to Miss Love, I read some psychology books in college. Everything that's supposed to warp a child happened to me. Miss Love, who had been raped as an adolescent, replies, Everything that could warp a child happened to me, too. But understanding that doesn't help. It's interesting but it doesn't help. I figure that what you do with your life now is all that counts. I try not to look back.

I think a lot about the poems I wasn't able to write...I masturbrated...Solitude is essentially a matter of pride; you bury yourself in your own scent. The issue is the same for all real poets. If you've been happy for too long, you become banal. By the same token, if you've been unhappy for a long time, you lose your poetic power...Happiness and poverty can only coexist for the briefest time.
