Envy is impotent, numbed with fear, never ceasing in its appetite, and it knows no gratification, but endless self torment. It has the ugliness of a trapped rat, which gnaws its own foot in an effort to escape. ~Angus Wilson

Even if I had expected it, even if I had known what I was going to do with my life, it would have knocked the wind out of me.
