Quote from Jeanette Winterson "Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal"
'That there might be a level that we can reach above the ordinary conflict is a seductive one. Yung argued that a conflict can never be resolved on the level at which it arises - at that level there is only a winner and loser, not a reconciliation. The conflict must be got above, like seeing a storm from higher ground...... how absurd it all is - the things that mean so much, the feuds we carry, the irreconcilables'
