We need to recover an oasis of silence within the rhyme and reason of our active life, for it is in silence that we meet God face to face.
~ Max Picard
What is one to do with such moments, such memories, but cherish them? Who knows what is beyond the known? And if you think that any day the secret of light might come, would you not keep the house of your mind ready? Would you not cleanse your study of all that is cheap, or trivial? Would you not live in continual hope, and pleasure, and excitement?
