One of Rachael's favorite quotes is:"We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, unremembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half-heard, in the stillness
Between two waves of the sea.
--T.S. Eliot, Little Gidding
"People who are looking for something almost never find it. Even if you do find it, you still wonder if more is out there. And it's not until you realize that you need to stop looking because it's negatively affecting your life, that ...Expand for more

And I've had my own searches/dreams of enlightenment and I've come to terms that perfection as an abstract doesn't exist - but perfection in a moment does. And if you can extend that moment and the people in it over and over (even if it's in the library), you'll be generally happy even if the world isn't 'perfect.'"

"The longing was with him day and night, an incessant undefinable craving, like the sudden whim of a sick man for food and drink once tasted and long since forgotten. He could not see beyond the craving, or picture what it might lead to, for he was not conscious of any wish to speak to Madame Olenska or to hear her voice. He simply felt that if he could carry away the vision of the spot of earth she walked on, and the way the sky and sea enclosed it, the rest of the world might seem less empty."
--Edith Wharton, The Age of Innocence".
