Be still, and know that I am God. (Psalm 46)
"He
was filled with a sense of peace that was all the keener for being so
brief--all the power of existence, all the delight of going nowhere, of
asking nothing, desiring nothing, just to stand there the whole night
long, blessedly, blissfully, as trees stand, catching the snowflakes."
--Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The First Circle, translated by Thomas P. Whitney
