Life's splendor forever lies in wait about each one of us in all its fullness, but veiled from view, deep down, invisible, far off. It is there, though, not hostile, not reluctant, not deaf. If you summon it by the right word, by its right name, it will come.

    de pracht van het leven ligt voor altijd op de loer over ieder van ons in al zijn volheid, maar aan het zicht onttrokken, diep van binnen, onzichtbaar, ver weg. het is er echter niet vijandig, niet onwillig, niet doof. als je het oproept met het juiste woord, met zijn juiste naam, zal het komen.
