“Here, among the mountains, the pinions of thought should be strong,
and one should see the errors of men from calmer heights of love and wisdom…Religion in the mind is not credulity, and in the practice is not form. It is a life. It is the order and soundness of a man. It is not something to be got, to be added, but is a new life of those faculties you have. It is to do right. It is to love, it is to serve, it is to think, it is to be humble.”
–Emerson

love is the only thing that can be divided without being diminished.
