"The emotions are imperious; they cannot be braked or polished into conventional ways of 'beauty' or 'symmetry.' They must explode as felt - in the rawness of palpable, visceral, painful, challenging, scraping, scourching self-discovery. For there to be unity, there must first be a plunge into and through the agony of separateness."
