    unpick the lock of your bones.

    take off the wall
    that separates you from God.

    I am primarily engaged to myself to be a public servant of all the gods, to demonstrate to all men that there is intelligence and good will at the heart of all things, and even higher and yet higher leadings. These are my engagements; how can your law further or hinder me in what I shall do to men?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
