Christopher McDougall

prayer years two
When I started out on my pilgrimage, I was using walking for two purposes at that time. One was to contact people, and I still use it for that purpose today. But the other was as a prayer discipline.

My personal prayer is: Make me an instrument through which only truth can speak. Peace Pilgrim

Sean O'Casey

Quantitatively it is not much, quantitatively the atom is not much, but qualitatively... If it explodes, it has tremendous energy in it. Rajneesh
