If we go down to ourselves, we find that we possess
exactly what we desire.*
Simone Weil

The ego wants nothing less than to see God. The soul knows, however, that if the Divine were to appear, the ego would not recognise it. The heavens cannot open for the soul; they are already open.
James Carse

Life is too short to explore
all that is open to us,
But it is also enough.
