And, thirdly, if that plot takes not, he will labour to hinder the success of thy prayer.

I think most of my approach to life has been like that, to find order in chaos, to be in the middle of a bunch of things happening at the same time, but find focus.

It's just sitting there being the sun, but exerting gravitational effect on everything. I think man should look at himself that way.
