Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.

The Gardener (1915)

The wise man warns me that life is but a dewdrop on the lotus leaf.

The Gardener (1915)

Life's errors cry for the merciful beauty
that can modulate their isolation
into a harmony with the whole.

Fireflies (1928)

The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.

All the great utterances of man have to be judged not by the letter but by the spirit — the spirit which unfolds itself with the growth of life in history.
