    Make me thy Spinning Wheele of use for thee,

    And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
    —Bible: New Testament St. John the Divine, in Revelation, 8:1.

    I’ve learned one thing about life. We’re a good deal like that ball, dancing on the fountain. We know as little about the forces that move us, and move the world around us, as that empty ball does.

    And what if all of animated nature
    Be but organic Harps diversely framed,
    That tremble into thought, as o’er them sweeps
    Plastic and vast, one intellectual breeze,
    At once the Soul of each, and God of all?
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
