Whatever we treasure for ourselves separates us from others; our possessions are our limitations.

Today I feel that I shall win through. I have come to the gateway of the simple; I am now content to see things as they are. I have gained freedom myself; I shall allow freedom to others. In my work will be my salvation.

Let my love like sunlight surround you and yet give you illumined freedom.

The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day. I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument. The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only there is the agony of wishing in my heart . . .

Not hammer-strokes, but dance of the water, sings the pebbles into perfection.
