“We cannot see things in perspective until we cease to hug them to our own bosom.

Only then can we begin to see God in them …

This, then, is our Wilderness: to live facing imminent despair,

but not to consent.” ~ Thomas Merton

“Always remember that your days are blessed.

You may know how to profit by them, and you may not,

but blessed they remain nonetheless.” ~ Nadia Boulanger
