Moving toward the light

"Wonder is the feeling of a philosopher and philosophy begins in wonder."

~Aristotle

"Both Wordsworth and Thoreau knew that when the light of common day seemed no more than common it was because of something lacking in them, not because of something lacking in it, and what they asked for was eyes to see a universe they knew was worth seeing. For that reason theirs are the best of all attempts to describe what real awareness consists of?that the rare moment is not the moment when there is something worth looking at but the moment when we are capable of seeing it."

~Joseph Wood Krutch
