Halaman 76 - I was utterly alone with the sun and the earth. Lying down on the grass, I spoke in my soul to the earth, the sun, the air, and the distant sea, far beyond sight.
Halaman 94 - But for those first affections, Those shadowy recollections, Which, be they what they may, Are yet the fountain light of all our day, Are yet a master light of all our seeing...
Halaman 135 - It must always remain an open question whether mystical states may not possibly be such superior points of view, windows through which the mind looks out upon a more extensive and inclusive world.
Halaman 176 - Master. When thou standest still from the thinking of self, and the willing of self; 'When both thy intellect and will are quiet, and passive to the...
