No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.

You are good when you strive to give of yourself.
You pray in your distress and in your need; would that you might pray also in the fullness of your joy and in your days of abundance.
Beauty is not a need but an ecstasy.
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
