More From Isaac Bashevis Singer

There are only two emotions: love and fear. all positive emotions come from love, all negative emotions from fear. from love flows happiness, contentment, peace, and joy. from fear comes anger, hate, anxiety and guilt. it's true that there are only two primary emotions, love and fear. but it's more accurate to say that there is only love or fear, for we cannot feel these two emotions together, at exactly the same time. they're opposites. if we're in fear, we are not in a place of love. when we're in a place of love, we cannot be in a place of fear. copyright: elisabeth kubler-ross family limited partnership.

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care; youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. youth is full sport, age's breath is short; youth is nimble, age is lame; youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; youth is wild, age is tame. age, i do abhor thee; youth, i do adore thee.

It is a great thing to be at your age... you are at a very specific time of age ... an age where you can follow all your dreams. but also at an age when you can change-you can change your dreams, you can change paths. when you start something when you're young, you should not decide 'this is it, this is my way and i will go all the way.' you have the age where you can change. you get experience, and maybe dislike it and go another way. your age is still an age of exploration.

It's as if scientists exert every effort of will they possess deliberately to find the least significant problems in the world and explain them. art matters. happiness matters. love matters. good matters. evil matters. slam the fridge door. they are the only things that matter and they are of course precisely the things that science goes out of its way to ignore.

…faith forged in the furnace of trials and tears is marked by trust and testimony. only god can count the sacrifice; only god can measure the sorrow; only god can know the hearts of those who serve him.
Heart Sacrifice Sorrow
What is it, angel?" she said, starting up. "have they come for me?" "yes, dearest," he said. "they have come." "it is as it should be," she murmured. "angel, i am almost glad—yes, glad! this happiness could not have lasted. it was too much. i have had enough; and now i shall not live for you to despise me!" she stood up, shook herself, and went forward, neither of the men having moved. "i am ready," she said quietly.

Stand-up is an amazing art form, i think, because it's all about you having complete control of the situation, but absolutely none.
