“There was no escape from it once we got sucked in. We tried all sorts of maneuvering but still it shot us in a southerly direction and we couldn't get out of it.”

“I was elated by my success in my work, but shattered over my mother's death, and miserable about the way my marriage seemed to be foundering. And one day when my wife was away, I walked out of the house, and out of her life, trying to escape from something I could put no name to.”
Conrad Veidt
