2/14/00:

When a living ember is placed in your hand, you do’t sit and question whether your senses are telling you the truth or ponder over whether or not matter even exists. In the same way, although I may not be able to prove to myself empirically that my Creator has loved me to the bottom, that has no effect on the burning that I feel within my soul. 

Man doth usurp all space,
Stares thee, in rock, bush, river, in the face.
Never yet thine eyes behold a tree:
‘Tis no see thou seest in the sea,
‘Tis but a disguised humanity.
To avoid thy fellow, vain thy plan;
All that interests a man, is man.

- Henry Sutton
