—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

“I have been told to reason by the heart,
But heart, like head, leads helplessly;
I have been told to reason by the pulse,
And, when it quickens, alter the actions’ pace”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“Not since Moses has anyone seen a mountain so greatly.”
—Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926)
