Tough love makes you tougher. If you love someone, after a certain point, you gotta give them that tough stuff. Anything less is leaving them weaker for the world to destroy.

Much has been said of the loneliness of wisdom, and how much the Truth seeker becomes a pilgrim wandering from star to star. To the ignorant, the wise man is lonely because he abides in distant heights of the mind. But the wise man himself does not feel lonely. Wisdom brings him nearer to life; closer to the heart of the world than foolish man can ever be. Bookishness may lead to loneliness, and scholarship may end in a battle of beliefs, but the wise man gazing off into space sees not an emptiness, but a space full of life, truth, and law.
Manly P. Hall
Good words, my son got a low score for about such a citation in his essay. They said it was plagiarism)) Why are we then memorizing these quotes, damn it! Modern studies have gone a little crazy. I gave him the homepage of a professional writer's site. Let these guys do writing assignments for this professor. Checkmate College))

It just does not appear possible, even for God himself, to make a bounded space completely protected from the outside- not in the real world, with its necessary limitations, surrounded by the transcendent. The outside, chaos, always sneaks into the inside, because nothing can be completely walled off from the rest of reality. So even the ultimate in safe spaces inevitably harbours a snake.

An even if it were possible to permanently banish everything threatening- everything dangerous (and, therefore, everything challenging and interesting)- that would mean only that another danger would emerge: that of permanent human infantilism and absolute uselessness. How could the nature of man ever reach its full potential without challenge and danger? How dull and contemptible would we become if there was no longer reason to pay attention?

ACQUAINTANCE, n. A person whom we know well enough to borrow from, but not well enough to lend to. A degree of friendship called slight when its object is poor or obscure, and intimate when he is rich or famous.

Ambrose Bierce. The Devil's Dictionary

"Good judgement comes from experience...which usually comes from poor judgement" Will Rogers (I may have garbled it slightly)

A man has an affair with another woman
Not because of how he feels about her
But because of how she makes him feel about himself.

- A shrink that was on Dr. Phil years ago, or something like that.
