Wounds Quotes
-
I say that we are wound With mercy round and round As if with air.
Gerard Manley Hopkins
-
Like the pain of a bad wound, the effect of a deep shock takes some while to be felt. When a child is told, for the first time in his life, that a person he has known is dead, although he does not disbelieve it, he may well fail to comprehend it and later ask--perhaps more than once--where the dead person is and when he is coming back.
Richard Adams

No deeper wrinkles yet? Hath sorrow struck So many blows upon this face of mine And made no deeper wounds?
William Shakespeare

Haruki Murakami

William Faulkner

Maltreatment is a chisel that shapes a brain to contend with strife, but at the cost of deep, enduring wounds. Childhood abuse isn’t something you “get over.”
Bessel van der Kolk
-
Love soothes wounds, while hatred and violence deepen them.
Willie Stargell
-
One heart is not connected to another through harmony alone. They are, instead, linked deeply through their wounds.
Haruki Murakami
