Jacqueline Winspear Quote

And I saw the eyes of the gazelle again in France [during WWI], and it struck me that perhaps a heartsick God had looked down and taken up a soul, leaving only the shell of a man. [of those who developed PTSD and/or war neuroses]… [In becoming a psychiatrist] I was really trying to create the conditions whereby a soul might be persuaded to join a man’s body once a again, thus making him whole.
