The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go
as we are and not be questioned. ---Maya Angelou

“The French are much more comfortable with the idea that their affair partner is just that—an affair partner,”
writes Pamela Druckerman. Understanding that love and sex are different things, Druckerman says
the French feel less need to “complain about their marriage to legitimize the affair in the first place.”
There is no private life which has not been determined by a wider public life. ---George Eliot
Susie McHugh + Dancers raise awareness and destigmatize mental illness through visceral and
intensely emotive work. Susanne’s stylized aesthetic is derived from codified forms
that is then infused with gesture analysis, isolation studies, improvisation, and theatricality.
With our raw feelings exposed, we bare our souls in public seeking understanding,
but ultimately we just wind up being alone with our prayers. ---Nicholas Croft
I wish they would only take me as I am. ---Vincent Van Gogh
