“The Quest of the Holy Grail, the Search for the Stone of the Philosophers - by whatever name we choose to call the Great Work - is therefore endless. Success only opens up new avenues of brilliant possibility. Yea, verily, and Amen! the task is tireless and its joys without bounds; for the whole Universe, and all that in it is, what is it but the infinite playground of the Crowned and Conquering Child, of the insatiable, the innocent, the ever-rejoicing Heir of Space and Eternity, whose name is MAN?” MenChildrenWholeJoySpiritualityUniverseNamesSpacePossibilityHolyStonesTasksEternityInfiniteBoundsPhilosopherBrilliantEndlessInnocentConquerRejoiceQuestsGreat WorkAvenuesHeirsAmenPlaygroundsInsatiableHoly Grail Book:Little Essays Toward Truth Source: Little Essays Toward Truth
“The pre-scientific age, whatever its deficiencies, had at least offered its members the peace of mind that follows from knowing all man-made achievements to be nothing next to the grandeur of the universe. We, more blessed in our gadgetry but less humble in our outlook, have been left... having no more compelling repository of veneration than our brilliant, precise, blinkered and morally troubling fellow human beings.” MenMindHumansHas BeensMadeAgeUniverseNextLeftHuman BeingsKnowingMembersAchievementFellowsBlessedHumbleBrilliantPeace Of MindCompellingPreciseOutlookGrandeurDeficiencyVeneration Author:Alain de Botton
“The only thing that's real in any universe [is] that brilliant fire of Love that burns to the exclusion of everything else. As we recognize the presence of Love, we break through the wall of grief that would try to convince us that the dear soul with whom we have learned and loved so much no longer exists, or that she or he cannot speak with us. There is no wall that Love cannot vaporize. We may believe in death, Love doesn't.” TryingBelieveMayRealSoulUniverseSpeakGriefBreakFireWallDearBrilliantConvinceExclusionBreak ThroughConvince UsFire Of LovePresence Of Love Author:Richard Bach
