Random quote of the day:

“He is our Father who is in heaven—not elsewhere. If we think to have a Father here below it is not he, it is a false God. We cannot take a single step towards him. We do not walk vertically. We can only turn our eyes towards him. We do not have to search for him, we only have to change the direction in which we are looking. It is for him to search for us. We must be happy in the knowledge that he is infinitely beyond our reach. Thus we can be certain that the evil in us, even if it overwhelms our whole being, in no way sullies the divine purity, bliss and perfection.”

—Simone Weil, Waiting for God (tr. Emma Craufurd)

Anchored

Random quote of the day:

“Everything is begging to be discovered, not accidentally, but intuitively. Seeking intuitively, one’s destination is never in a beyond of time and space but always here and now. If we are always arriving and departing, it is also true that we are eternally anchored.”

—Henry Miller, Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymous Bosch
