"The wound is the place where the light enters you." --Rumi
Elizabeth Gilbert: Beyond Eat, Pray, Love
"I think I have more compassion than if I had led a life where everything worked out exactly as I had planned or if I had never been wounded or if I had never been betrayed or I had never been harmed. I don't think I would be as good a person. I'm still aspiring to be a better and better person, but I think those disappointments have made me gentler with other people and their disappointments, the stuff that they have to carry around and endure." In this interview Elizabeth Gilbert discusses her life, her writing process, her new book and the importance of "stubborn gladness".
