Butterflies don’t write books, neither do lilies or violets. Which doesn’t mean they don’t know, in their own way, what they are. That they don’t know they are alive—that they don’t feel, that action upon which all consciousness sits, lightly or heavily. Humility is the prize of the leaf-world. Vain glory is the bane of us, the humans.
~Mary Oliver

“The aim of life is self-development. To realize one’s nature perfectly — that is what each of us is here for.”
