Do not accuse yourself that your tribulation and your woe is all your fault; for I do not want you to be immoderately depressed or sorrowful. For I tell you that whatever you do, you will have woe. . . . The remedy is that our Lord is with us, protecting us and leading us into the fullness of joy.
—Julian of Norwich (1342-1416?), Revelations of Divine Love, Long Text 77
