When free from distress, we should be on the alert for
what’s terrible,
and when life is going well, look especially
then to our lives,
that they haven’t been destroyed while we weren’t
looking.


Philoctetes by Sophocles
(Phillips 2003)

This quote does need to be in context, go out and read it!
Love the character of Philoctetes. What a great play.
