.
The longest silence is the most pertinent question
most pertinently put.
Emphatically silent.
The most important question,
whose answers concern us more than any,
are never put in any other way.
.
~ Henry David Thoreau
from his journal, 1851
.
The wine of life is oozing drop by drop,
The leaves of life are falling one by one.
~ Omar Khayyam
.
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
