“There is nothing stronger in this world than gentleness.”
Han Suyin

“Love from one being to another can only be that two solitudes come nearer, recognize and protect and comfort each other. ”
Han Suyin

“... all humans are frightened of their own solitude. Yet only in solitude can man learn to know himself, learn to handle his own eternity of aloneness. And love from one being to another can only be that two solitudes come nearer, recognize and protect and comfort each other." - The Mountain is Young”
Han Suyin, The Mountain Is Young
