We are not here for the sake of possession, or of power, or of happiness, but we are here to transfigure the divine out of human spirit.

Walter Rathenau



Grace is not a strange, magic substance which is subtly filtered into our souls to act as a kind of spiritual penicillin.  Grace is unity, oneness within ourselves, oneness with God.

Thomas Merton



When we go crashing through the woods shouting for it to come out so we can help it, the soul will stay in hiding.  But if we are willing to sit quietly and wait for a while, the soul may show itself.

Parker J. Palmer



The first act of awe, when a person was struck with the beauty or wonder of Nature, was the first spiritual experience.

Henryk Skolimowski
