Your heart might not have travelled well, closed up in its cavity, quivering and gnawing at the bars of your ribcage during the commute.

If in one small degree it shows him where he can be...gentler, saner, cleaner, kindlier...it is a wonder-working book. If it opens his eyes to one beauty in nature he never saw for himself and leads him one step toward the God of the Universe, it is a beneficial book.

They have aptly been called 'wounded healers.' " ~ Barney Livingston, M.D. (Doctors, 1989)
