“This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and gloaming, on seas and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.”

— John Muir

“How will we ever find Peace with so many ups and downs in the way?” worried the little mouse.
“I don’t think we need to find Peace,” said the elephant. “We just need to sing as we go, ‘Now we are up, a-hum! Now we are down, a-hum! Now we are up, again, a-hum!’ That way, Peace can find us.”

— Quiet Lotus

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”

— Rainer Maria Rilke

“Our life is frittered away by detail. … Simplify, simplify.”

— Henry David Thoreau
