Desire is its own answer, because it's healing. Desire in the sense of feeling -- the opposite of desensitization, anomie, indifference, apathy, because desire is natural. Now you might not be able to satisfy it, but the recognition of the desire is in itself a virtue. Like thought is natural to the mind, desire is natural to the heart.
-- Allen Ginsberg
All human desire is poised on an axis of paradox, absence and presence its poles, love and hate its motive energies.
-- Anne Carson, Eros the Bittersweet
