-Limitation in the possibility of an enjoyment raises the value of the enjoyment.

-Like the poet in Freud's essay, if we cannot get comfortable (or at lease comfortable enough) with the fact that everything changes, we risk going through life at an arm's length from its most poignant offerings. In trying to protect ourselves from the experience of change, we end up limiting the depth of our lives.

-There is a saying in Buddhism that life is full of ten thousand joys and ten thousand sorrows. You don't get to experience the former without the latter.
