Art is the principal way in which the human mind has tried to remake the world in a way that makes sense. The carefully edited, slow-motion, action replay of a rugby tackle, a car crash or a sex act has more significance than the original event.

J. G. Ballard

Glenn Greenwald

If we look deeply enough, we might see how these experiences as situations that motivate us to grow and change for the better. John Templeton
