A great thing is love...

"A great thing is love--a great good in every way: which alone lightens all that is burdensome, and bears equally all that is unequal. For it carries a burden without being burdened, and makes all else that is bitter sweet and savory."


--from The Following of Christ

Hidden paths...

"Still round the corner there may wait

A new road or a secret gate,

And though I've often passed them by,

A day will come at last when I

Shall take the hidden paths that run

West of the Moon, East of the Sun."

--J. R. R. Tolkien
