We may not see you as our souls see you,...
...
We build up pictures before you like walls -
by now a thousand such walls surround you.
For each time our open hearts behold you,
our pious hands cloak you in disguise.
~Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926), The Book of Hours

The human heart is so delicate and sensitive that it always needs some tangible encouragement to prevent it from faltering in its labor. The human heart is so robust, so tough, that once encouraged it beats its rhythm with a loud unswerving insistency. ~Maya Angelou

Our supremest need is real faith in the omnipotence of Love. Thousands talk of God Almighty, and have no faith in Love at all; to them the real powers are force, wealth, competition, and self-interest. These are the powers that sway the world. ~G. A. Studdert-Kennedy, Food for the Fed Up (1921)
