Found: One Quote
I found the quote. It is a pretty quote, and I thought of it that day that my cat was so overwhelmed at the park that she couldn't move.
-George Eliot--Middlemarch
"We do not expect people to be deeply moved by what is not unusual. That element of tragedy which lies in the very fact of frequency has not yet wrought itself into the coarse emotion of mankind: and perhaps our frames could hardly bear much of it. If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence."
-George Eliot--Middlemarch
