 As a Counsellor I find wisdom about the experience of being human in many places. On this page I share and offer quotes, images and poetry that resonate with me. 

 

'You never really understand a person until you consider things from their point of view . . . until you climb into their skin and walk around in it.'

-Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, 1960

 

 

'Nobody really knows much more about it than you.'

-Yrsa Daley-Ward, The How, 2021

 

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; … who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

-T. Roosevelt,1910.
