Our Lord needs from us neither great deeds nor profound thoughts. Neither intelligence nor talents. He cherishes simplicity.
If you endeavor to embrace the Way through much learning, the Way will not be understood. If you observe the Way with simplicity of heart, great indeed is this Way.
But in the garden of simple, where all of us are nameless, you were never anything but beautiful to me.
Your heart is uncomplicated. It knows what it knows and acts accordingly. Greater wisdom is hard to find.
In simple hearts the feeling for the beauty and grandeur of nature is a hundred-fold stronger and more vivid than in us, ecstatic composers of narratives in words and on paper.
By two wings a man is lifted up from things earthly: by simplicity and purity.
