• There is something about the Himalayas not possessed by the Alps, something unseen and unknown, a charm that pervades every hour spent among them, a mystery intriguing and disturbing.

• People believe I am what they see Me as, rather than what they do not see. But I am the Great Unseen, not what I cause Myself to be in any particular moment. In a sense, I am what I am not. It is from the Am-notness that I come, and to it I always return.

• Speak not, move not, but listen, the sky is full of gold. No ripple on the river, no stir in field or fold, All gleams but naught doth glisten, but the far-off unseen sea. Forget days past, heart broken, put all memory by! No grief on the green hillside, no pity in the sky, Joy that may not be spoken fills mead and flower and tree.

  William Morris

• On his first hand he wore rings of stone,
  Iron, Amber, Wood and Bone.
  There were rings unseen on his second hand,
  One was blood in a flowing band,
  One was air all whisper thin,
  And the ring of ice had a flaw within.
  Full faintly shone the ring of flame,
  And the final ring was without name.
