Deep Depression

Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or depression:

    “Lo, thus, as prostrate, ‘In the dust I write
    My heart’s deep languor and my soul’s sad tears.’
    Yet why evoke the spectres of black night
    To blot the sunshine of exultant years?”
    —James Thomson (1834–1882)

    “During depression the world disappears. Language itself. One has nothing to say. Nothing. No small talk, no anecdotes. Nothing can be risked on the board of talk. Because the inner voice is so urgent in its own discourse: How shall I live? How shall I manage the future? Why should I go on?”
    —Kate Millett (b. 1934)
