The creativity that comes from silence, from a quiet heart, feels different from that of ambition to both the creator and the observer.

The creator has no need to take credit for it, the observer no need to possess it.

As patience deepens, charity and sympathy increase.

Every moment a taste of that beauty in our mouths, another stashed in a pocket. Impossible to say what: no cypress so handsome, no sunlight, a lonely hiddenness. Other pleasure gathers a crowd, starts a fight, lots of noise there. But soul beauty stays quiet..his amazing whereabouts unknown inside my heart.
