Some day, after we have mastered the winds, the waves, the tides, and gravity, we shall harness the energies of love. Then, for a second time in the history of the world, we will have discovered fire.
~Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (from Kathleen Roy)
The seed sowed in the dust of daily life has blossomed into immortal flowers
Many a humble soul will be amazed to find that the seed it sowed in weakness, in the dust of daily life, has blossomed into immortal flowers under the eye of love.
