Marianne WilliamsonWe are not built for the mountains and the dawns and aesthetic affinities, those are for moments of inspiration, that is all. We are built for the valley, for the ordinary stuff we are in, and that is where we have to prove our mettle. Spiritual selfishness always wants repeated moments on the mount.

Saint John ChrysostomThe reduction of the universe to the compass of a single being, and the extension of a single being until it reaches God - that is love.

For there is a sound reasoning upon all flowers. For flowers are peculiarly the poetry of Christ.
