Science urges us to occupy by our mind the immensity of the knowable world; our spiritual teacher enjoins us to comprehend by our soul the infinite spirit which is in the depth of the moving and changing facts of the world; the urging of our artistic nature is to realize the manifestation of personality in the world of appearance, the reality of existence which is in harmony with the real within us. Where this harmony is not deeply felt, there we are aliens and perpetually homesick. For man by nature is an artist; he never receives passively and accurately in his mind a physical representation of things around him. - Sir Rabindranath Tagore

That God of the clergymen, He is for me as dead as a doornail. But am I an atheist for all that? The clergymen consider me as such- be it so; but I love, and how could I feel love if I did not live, and if others did not live, and then, if we live, there is something mysterious in that. Now call that God, or human nature or whatever you like, but there is something which I cannot define systematically, though it is very much alive and very real, and see, that is God, or as good as God. To believe in God for me is to feel that there is a God, not a dead one, or a stuffed one, but a living one, who with irresistible force urges us toward 'aimer encore'; that is my opinion. - Vincent Van Gogh
Busy idleness urges us on. [La., Strenua nos exercet inertia] - Horace
What does drunkenness accomplish? It discloses secrets, it ratifies hopes, and urges even the unarmed to battle. [La., Quid non ebrietas designat? Operta recludit; Spes jubet esse ratas; in praelia trudit inermem] - Horace
