Bernadette Roberts Quotes
The onset of this second movement is characterized by the falling away of self and coming upon "that" which remains when it is gone.

Murder investigations start with the victim, because usually in the first instance that's all you've got. The study of the victim is called victimology because everything sounds better with an 'ology' tacked on the end.
