Quote by Paul Pen

“These fireflies that you say you see are like the chick that hatched in our hands,” she explained. “Huh?” “I gave you a very special power the night you brought me the egg. I taught you to see things like I have to see them,” she said. She laid a wrinkly finger on my forehead. “Imagining them. And I see you’ve managed to make good use of that power.” I let out a sigh of wonder. “There’s no creature more amazing than one that can make its own light,” Grandma went on.”

“A photon at rest has no mass (no mass, no energy) and at the speed of light all of the energy is stored as a change over time and distance traveled, in other words, frequency. Does the photon disappear when it is absorbed by the electron? This would not make sense, we are not talking about particles. The scientist has not figured out that the measurement has become more real than the thing being measured.”

“A very sweet light is spreading over the Earth like a perfume. The moon is slowly dissolving and a boy-sun languidly stretches his translucent arms ... Cool murmurings of pure waters that surrender themselves to the hillsides. A pair of wings dances in the rosy atmosphere. Silence, my friends. The day is about to begin.”
