    “Everybody has that thing where they need to look one way but they come out looking another way and that’s what people observe. You see someone on the street and essentially what you notice about them is the flaw. It’s just extraordinary that we should have been given these peculiarities.... Something is ironic in the world and it has to do with the fact that what you intend never comes out like you intend it.”
    —Diane Arbus (1923–1971)

    “All sin tends to be addictive, and the terminal point of addiction is what is called damnation.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “Thou shalt not kill.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Exodus, 20:13.

    The sixth commandment.

    “Play is a major avenue for learning to manage anxiety. It gives the child a safe space where she can experiment at will, suspending the rules and constraints of physical and social reality. In play, the child becomes master rather than subject.... Play allows the child to transcend passivity and to become the active doer of what happens around her.”
    —Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
