Tranquillity

"The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious
-
the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle
of true art and true science."

"Thou must be like a promontory of the sea, against which, though
the waves beat continually, yet it both itself stands, and about it
are those swelling waves stilled and quieted."
Brother Lawrence
The Practice and Presence of God
"The time of business does not differ from the time of prayer
and in
the noise and clutter of my kitchen while several persons are at
the same time calling for different things, I possess God in as great
tranquillity as if I were upon my knees at the Blessed Sacrament."
