"I want to taste and glory in each day, and never be afraid to experience pain; and never shut myself up in a numb core of non-feeling, or stop questioning and criticising life and take the easy way out. To learn and think; to think and live; to live and learn; this always, with new insight, new understanding, new love."

~ Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath (6th Jan. 1953)
