"God is the friend of silence.
See how nature-trees, flowers, grass-grows in silence;
see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls."
-Mother Teresa (1910-1997)

To higher levels rise."

by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived.

turn his back on life."

"Because man and woman are the complement of one another,
