I just want to make a point that it&#39;s not just great teachers that sometimes shape your life. Sometimes it&#39;s the absence of great teachers that shapes your life and being ignored can be just as good for a person as being lauded.

It is not the broken heart that kills, but broken pride, monseigneur.

To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects, to want to help everyone in everything, is to succumb to the violence of our times.
