Here’s a table summarizing key quotes from "The Wild Edge of Sorrow" by Francis Weller:
| Theme | Quote | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Grief as Initiation | "Grief is not a passive state but an active duty." | Grieving is essential for personal transformation. |
| Communal Healing | "The work of the mature person is to carry grief in one hand and gratitude in the other." | Healing happens through shared sorrow and joy. |
| The Five Gates of Grief | "We are shaped and softened by the losses we endure." | Loss helps us grow emotionally and spiritually. |
| Cultural Amnesia | "We live in a flat-line culture, one that refuses to truly engage with grief." | Modern society suppresses grief, limiting healing. |
| The Role of Ritual | "Without a container, grief can consume us." | Rituals help process sorrow in a structured way. |
