Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.This has been my life; I found it worth living.

Marked by the beauty and simplicity of a mindful wisdom, evocative prose, and lucid insight. One that can knock upon themselves as upon a door, and walk upon themselves as on a road.For if you walk on that path, you cannot go astray; and when you knock on that door…What you open for yourself shall open...This is who I'd like to meet.

Art is a kind of innate drive that seizes a human being and makes him its instrument.To perform this difficult office it is sometimes necessary for him to sacrifice happiness and everything that makes life worth living for the ordinary human being.
