'The greatest miracle is the discovery that all is miraculous. And the nature of the miraculous is--utter simplicity. Nothing has been gained by sweat and struggle, by taking thought, by devotion, prayer, perseverance, patience, fortitude--or by sloth, need it be added. Imagine the planets pausing to decide the direction of their orbits! Imagine them struggling to change their fiery courses! Thinking--what a vice! Struggling--what absurdity! To know is so easy, so painless. The ground for any kind of growth and cultivation is prepared by lying fallow.' -Henry Miller
