As long as you notice, and have to count the steps, you are not yet dancing but only learning to dance. A good shoe is a shoe you don't notice. Good reading becomes possible when you need not conciously think about eyes, or light, or print, or spelling. The perfect church service would be the one we were almost unaware of; our attention would have been on God.

I believe that if a million chances were likely to do good, they would be given.

All Hell is smaller than one pebble of your earthly world; but it is smaller than one atom of this world, the Real World.
