The miracles of the church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always. – Willa Cather
The point is not to take the worlds opinion as a guiding star but to go ones way in life and working unerringly, neither depressed by failure nor seduced by applause. – Gustav Mahler
