Raphael Carter Quotes
I Want To Tell You That It's Horrible. I Want To Tell You That Being Suppressed Makes Every Moment Of Existence A Torment, Because Maybe That Would Help--but It Would Be A Lie. In Fact, The Most Horrible Thing Is How Easy It Is To Slide Into Contentment, How Hard It Is To Nourish Anger Or Regret. If You Lose The Sense Of Smell, Say, Or Taste, You'd Grieve For It; But If You Were Born Without That Sense, You'd Never Miss It. That's How It Was For Me--the Sense Was Gone, As Though It Has Never Been. For The First Few Years After Suppression, I Kept Myself In Misery By Sheer Effort Of Will, Trying To Imagine, Every Day, What It Was That I Had Lost. But In The End, It Became To Much Trouble. I Gave In To The Inevitable. I Forgot.
