I tried to find your quote, but failed. Here's a substitute. ;-)

"A man whose mind feels that it is captive would prefer to blind himself to the fact. But if he hates falsehood, he will not do so; and in that case he will have to suffer a lot. He will beat his head against the wall until he faints. He will come to again and look with terror at the wall, until one day he begins afresh to beat his head against it; and once again he will faint. And so on endlessly and without hope. One day he will wake up on the other side of the wall." ~~Simone Weil

Just now, I located these lyrics. Maybe it is the source:

What Kind of Fool Lyrics
Artist: Gary Allan
Album: Tough All Over

I see you here, night after night
All by yourself in the blue neon light
A drink in your hand, a tear on your face
A beautiful woman so out of place
I guess somebody told you goodbye
In a million years I couldn't understand why

CHORUS
What kind of fool
Didn't want you
What kind of fool
Tore your heart in two
What kind of fool
Didn't do everything he could do
To hold on to you
What kind of fool

Well, I ain't no saint and I ain't no king
I don't know it all, but I do know one thing
Whoever it was that made you so blue
Never deserved a woman like you
He should be down on his bended knees
Beggin' you to forgive him please

What kind of fool
Didn't want you
What kind of fool
Tore your heart in two
What kind of fool
Didn't do everything he could do
To hold on to you
What kind of fool

One day he'll wake up
and realize the terrible truth
He'll see that he had it all
When he had you

What kind of fool
Didn't want you
What kind of fool
Tore your heart in two
What kind of fool
Didn't do everything he could do
To hold on to you
What kind of fool
Tell me what kind of fool
What kind of fool

And then there's this line:

"One day he’ll wake up
And realize all he needs is me
Until then, God, I wish I knew
I need a guarantee"
~~"Are You There?" song from "Bare: A Pop Opera"
