“As the Sun put a circle round the earth and all that it contained, so a man by his vision put a circle round himself. At the centre of this circle his spirit sat, and at the centre of his spirit was a serenity for ever watchful.

“I am not sorry for the past. I am not sorry for the lost time. I am glad of the great change which has been made in my life, and I am glad of it for this reason, that I can now look back upon it without any feeling of regret, and I can accept what has come to me in the fulness of my heart. I would not have it otherwise. I would not, if i could, change the course of my life.”
