About This Quote
The beauty of the quote, “Maybe what I need to be rescued from is the feeling that I don’t need to be rescued, for without a doubt this is the most difficult rescue of all,” lies in the fact that we can never know what we need.

It’s someone to rescue them from their deep and confusing emotions.
