Surely mortal man is a broomstick!
Jonathan Swift

All our work in the field, in the garden, in the city, in the home, in struggle, in government-to what does it all amount before God except child's play, by means of which God is pleased to give his gifts in the field, at home, and everywhere?

By the will art thou lost, by the will art thou found, by the will art thou free, captive, and bound.
Angelus Silesius
Image
Three days: Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday, I know, Yet if the past were cancelled within the here and now, And then the future hidden, I could regain that Day, Which I, before I was, had lived in God's own way.

The Rose is without 'why'—she blooms because she blooms.
Angelus Silesius

I am like God and God like me. I am as large as God. He is as small as I. He cannot above me nor I beneath him be.
