“I鈥檝e concluded that bittersweetness is not, as we tend to think, just a momentary feeling or event. It鈥檚 also a quiet force, a way of being, a storied tradition鈥攁s dramatically overlooked as it is brimming with human potential. It鈥檚 an authentic and elevating response to the problem of being alive in a deeply flawed yet stubbornly beautiful world. Most of all, bittersweetness shows us how to respond to pain: by acknowledging it, and attempting to turn it into art, the way the musicians do, or healing, or innovation, or anything else that nourishes the soul. If we don鈥檛 transform our sorrows and longings, we can end up inflicting them on others via abuse, domination, neglect. But if we realize that all humans know鈥攐r will know鈥攍oss and suffering, we can turn toward each other.[*2]”

“The late Syrian poet Nizar Qabbani wrote: 鈥淭he female doesn鈥檛 want a rich man or a handsome man or even a poet, she wants a man who understands her eyes if she gets sad, and points to his chest and says 鈥楬ere is your home country.鈥櫬”

“This book is about the melancholic direction, which I call the 鈥渂ittersweet鈥: a tendency to states of longing, poignancy, and sorrow; an acute awareness of passing time; and a curiously piercing joy at the beauty of the world. The bittersweet is also about the recognition that light and dark, birth and death鈥攂itter and sweet鈥攁re forever paired. 鈥淒ays of honey, days of onion,鈥 as an Arabic proverb puts it.”

“Philosophers call this the 鈥減aradox of tragedy,鈥 and they鈥檝e puzzled over it for centuries. Why do we sometimes welcome sorrow, when the rest of the time we鈥檒l do anything to avoid it?”
Susan Cain, Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole

Susan Cain
“the secret that our poets and philosophers have been trying to tell us for centuries, is that our longing is the great gateway to belonging.”
