I had got this far, and was thinking of what to say next, and as my habit is, I was pricking the paper idly with my pen.

I while I write, you while you read, and others while they listen or stop their ears, they are all dying. ~Petrarch

What exists is a godly existence, a divine existence. God not as a person but as a presence certainly exists. But to understand that presence, you have to understand your own inner presence first, because it is from there that you can take off, it is from there that you can have the first glimpse of what godliness is. If you have not known yourself you will never know God. ~Rajneesh
