"By reading the scriptures I am so renewed that all nature seems renewed around me and with me. The sky seems to be a pure, a cooler blue, the trees a deeper green. The whole world is charged with the glory of God and I feel fire and music under my feet."

- Thomas Merton, from The Sign of Jonas, (Harcourt, Brace & Co., New York, 1953)
