“Child of the world, you are the dream between opposites, light in the arms of darkness, chaos folded into order. The cosmos remembers you. you live in the silence of the owl, in the death of stars you live in the breath where time forgets itself.”

“The sun which warms the plant can under other conditions also wither it. The rain which nourishes the flower can under other conditions rot it. The same sun shines upon mud that shines upon wax. It hardens the mud but softens the wax. The difference is not in the sun, but in that upon which it shines. The Divine Life which shines upon a soul that loves Him, softens it into everlasting life; that same Divine Life which shines upon the slothful soul, neglectful of God, hardens it into everlasting death.”
