Quotations

  • “Let right deeds be thy motive, not the fruit which comes from them. And live in action! Labour!”

  • “This is better, that one do his own task as he may, even though he fail, than take tasks not his own, though they seem good.”

  • “If there should rise suddenly within the skies sunburst of a thousand suns flooding earth with beams undeemed-of, then might be that Holy One's majesty and radiance dreamed of!”
