The familiar,

precisely because it is familiar,

remains unknown.

The true generosity is to give in to the presence of everything.

~ Albert Camus

.

Geese appear high over us

pass, and the sky closes. Abandon,

as in love or sleep, holds

them to their way, clear

in the ancient faith: what we need

is here. And we pray, not

for new earth or heaven, but to be

quiet in heart, and in eye,

clear. What we need is here.

.

~ Wendell Berry

.

The wine of life is oozing drop by drop,
The leaves of life are falling one by one.

~ Omar Khayyam

What is your life about, anyway? Nothing but a struggle to be someone. Nothing but a running from your own silence.

~ Rumi

.

Happy are those who know:

Behind all words, the Unsayable stands;

And from that source alone, the Infinite

Crosses over to gladness, and us -

Free of our bridges

Built with the stone of distinctions;

So that always, within each delight,

We gaze at what is purely single and joined.

~ Rainer Maria Rilke

One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours?
