Psychoanalysis is confession without absolution.
|
Forgive! How many will say, ''forgive,'' and find a sort of absolution in the sound to hate a little longer!
|
It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.
|
There is a luxury in self-reproach. When we blame ourselves, we feel that no one else has a right to blame us. It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.
|
When lip service to some mysterious deity permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution on Sunday, cash me out.
|
Our own acts are isolated and one act does not buy absolution for another.
|
We, soldiers of a different sort, We, wasters of ink and page, We, warriors of words, Masters of melancholy, harlots of the pen, We bleed these volumes, and expect only absolution.
