 One of the deepest truths about the cry of the human heart is that it is so often muted, so often a cry that is never uttered. To be sure, there are needs and feelings that we express quite openly; lying deeper are emotions we share only with loved ones, and deeper still the things we tell no one. We die with much unsaid. It is strange that members of a species renowned for communicative gifts should leave unexpressed some of their deepest yearnings, their smoldering resentments, their worries and secret hopes, their longings to serve a higher purpose.
  John W. Gardner

 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows, / Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.

  Thomas Mann
