The uniquely human mental process called worrying depends upon having a brain that can reason, remember, reflect, feel, and imagine. Only humans have a brain big enough to do this simultaneously and do it well. ~Edward Hallowell

#quotes #anna-kendrick #marriage #divorce

P. Lovecraft
#quotes #h-p-lovecraft #earth #life #pessimism

#quotes #alice-eve #childhood #clothing
