We must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind us to the fact
that each moment of life is a miracle and mystery. ~ H. G. Wells
Do
not all charms fly at the mere touch of cold philosophy? There was an
awful rainbow once in heaven: we know her woof, her texture; she is
given in the dull catalogue of common things. Philosophy will clip an
angel's wings, conquer all mysteries by rule and line, empty the haunted
air, and unweave a rainbow.
~ John Keats
Abandon the urge to simplify everything, to look for formulas and easy
answers, and to begin to think multidimensionally, to glory in the
mystery and paradoxes of life, not to be dismayed by the multitude of
causes and consequences that are inherent in each experience -- to
appreciate the fact that life is complex. ~ M. Scott Peck
