When I consider the small span of my life absorbed in the eternity of all time, or the small part of space which I can touch or see engulfed by the infinite immensity of spaces that I know not and that know me not, I am frightened and astonished to see myself here instead of there … now instead of then Picture Quote #1

Do not seek fame. Do not make plans. Do not be absorbed by activities. Do not think that you know. Be aware of all that is and dwell in the infinite. Wander where there is no path. Be all that heaven gave you, but act as though you have received nothing. Be empty, that is all Picture Quote #1

In any activity, we have to know what to expect, how to reach our objectives and what capacity we possess for the proposed task.

He gives way without reserve to his most powerful passion and the wishes it engenders Picture Quote #1
