“In moments of discouragement, defeat, or even despair, there are always certain things to cling to.
Little things usually: remembered laughter, the face of a sleeping child, a tree in the wind-in fact, any reminder of something deeply felt or dearly loved.
No man is so poor as not to have many of these small candles.
When they are lighted, darkness goes away-and a touch of wonder remains.”
—“These Small Candles” ...tombstone inscription in Britain
Love is an endless mystery, for it has nothing else to explain it.
