“Nature is never devoid of storms and our life’s nature is quite similar. Many storms gather, occur, and pass away in one lifetime. Sometimes one huge hurricane may tend to destroy everything in our lives, yet we should not fear the tempest. A storm comes to life like a lesson sometimes, when we have no choice but to learn from the atmospheric gale.”

“Both Simeon and the father of the returning son carry within themselves that mysterious light by which they see. It is an inner light, deeply hidden, but radiating an all-pervasive tender beauty. This inner vision, however, had remained hidden for a long time. Only gradually and through much anguish did he come to know that light within himself and, through himself, in those he painted. Before being like the father, Rembrandt was for a long time like the proud young man. It is the movement from the glory that seduces one into an ever greater search for wealth and popularity to the glory that is hidden in the human soul and surpasses death.”

“• “It’s not a floating lantern, or course not. It’s a mass of some kind of fluorescent plant—or perhaps a colony of jellyfish—passing by. He stares, disappointed yet mesmerized by the sight. This radiant heart light. If he had not come to the deck, it would have passed unobserved. He wonders if the world is like this; so many miracles of beauty everywhere, if only you knew where to look, that go otherwise unobserved.” “Death, so routine and anticlimactic in the end, all the more horrific because of it.”
