“And what is it to work with love? ...It is to charge all things you fashion with a breath of your own spirit.”
“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
“Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.”
Love in all things,
