“Haven't you realized what a speck you are in comparison with the cosmic Whole? Actually, this is only with respect to your body, because with respect to Reason, you are as great as the gods. Intelligence is not measured with height or width like physical things, but by fortitude of mind. So, bank on your contentment in that part of you which makes you equal with the gods.”
