We need to see that universal sickness, that innumerable throng of men and women laden down with their secrets, laden down with their fears, their sufferings, their sorrows, their disappointments, and their guilt. We need to understand how tragically alone they find themselves.

Yet what eats away at them from within is that they may live years without finding anyone in whom they have enough confidence to unburden themselves.
