Suddenly the hero saw that the living too are dead and that we can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasure; for our hearts are not strong enough to love every moment.
#ThorntonWilder (1897-1975), The Woman of Andros (1930)

“our hearts are not strong enough to love every moment”

Don’t you think that we really must bow to the truth of this? If we do, mustn’t we therefore change in a fundamental way how we conduct our lives?
