“But I say to you that when you work you fulfill a part of earth's furthest dream, assigned to you when that dream was born, And in keeping yourself with labour you are in truth loving life, And to love life through labour is to be intimate with life's inmost secret.”

“As the strings of a lute are apart though they quiver the same music.”

“You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.”

“Do not the spirits who dwell in the ether envy man his pain?”
