“The winds, the sea, and the moving tides are what they are. If there is wonder and beauty and majesty in them, science will discover these qualities... If there is poetry in my book about the sea, it is not because I deliberately put it there, but because no one could write truthfully about the sea and leave out the poetry.”

“Man is literally split in two: he has an awareness of his own splendid uniqueness in that he sticks out of nature with a towering majesty, and yet he goes back into the ground a few feet in order blindly and dumbly to rot and disappear forever.”

“Oh, really? Do you wake up heaving from bloody dreams that
promise destruction like some crazy street guy forecasting the
Apocalypse? Did you slam a door in your dad’s face hours before he died?
Does everyone, cops included, think you’re a pestering loon ’cause
‘accident’ doesn’t sit right with you, nor the many other freakouts, like
the car that keeps showing up on your street, with someone sitting in it,
doing like, nothing? No? Oh no? Didn’t think so. Life sucks for everyone.
Jump or deal with it.”

“Children see God every day; they just don't call it that. It's the summer sky painted with cumulus clouds by day and sequined with a million stars by night. It's the sweet whispers of sweet gum trees and the sounds riding the tops of honeysuckle-scented breezes. Children feel God stuffed into brown fluffy dogs with stitches strong enough to withstand a good squeeze, and on the lips of round women who can't get enough sugar from Chocolate.
I began to believe that God is us and nature, beauty and love, mystery and majesty, everything right and good.”

“Tears filled her eyes, and this time neither of them bothered to wipe them away. She stared at the spot long after the lost animal disappeared, silently telling her dad she’d seen one too.”

“I can only speak of wonder. But if you are too blinded by the shallowness of men who shout empty platitudes into hungry hearts, my words will be crowded out by the empty platitudes that stole the place in your heart that wonder was created for.”

“The Andes, guardians of this untamed land, seem to inhale deeply, exhaling a breath that whispers of secrets hidden within their mighty peaks. And I, a mere witness to this grand theater of nature, stand on the precipice, my soul intoxicated by the sheer majesty of the Andean sunset.”

“Much as the sweeping canopy of the oak draws its vitality and luster from its roots, majesty draws its power from the hidden things that both feed it and inspire it. Therefore, we would be wise to attend to the hidden things as without them majesty might venture into a forest, but it will never grow one.”

“I, too, once was ignorant. I had been over the same road several times before but never in the same frame of mind because I prized that more which cost an effort to win and I won because I used my dome, now I sit on a throne of my own dominion. A majesty of mastery.”

“Majesty and its scepter is the symbols it represents I stand for! No more worries about big brother worrying about my whereabouts. Having complete discretion of my own businesses in and outs. Truly the best way out of all the deceit is honesty, imaginable created illusories, the G in the middle represent God in geometry. It's freedom of the bondage through enlightenment of mentality. Free as a bird in the realm of immortality cause I live in a world of reality.”

“Do not be ashamed of who you are, for in doing so you are not taking into account the majesty of all that you are. And without any shred of doubt I know that you are a person of majesty, for in my innumerable years of working with people I have yet to find even one person who is not.”

“Some doubt the Christmas story, placing it as a piece of fiction penned to perpetuate a myth. And could it be that the majesty of this story is so utterly vast that fiction is the only way that they could restrain it sufficiently to keep it from commandeering their lives?”

“How do I explain the woods? For to do so using sturdy and manageable terms such as biodiversity or environment or ecosystem might suit a scientific framework. But such terms miss the mystery of life merging in a million different forms that all unify in a glorious tapestry so complete and utterly perfect that not to be stunned is to be dead in spirit. And therefore we might consider the fact that the woods make us alive in spirit when the definitions of men would kill life by enslaving it to definition.”

“And so on this rainbow day, with storms all around them, and blue sky above, they rode only as far as the valley. But from there, before they turned to go back, the monuments appeared close, and they loomed grandly with the background of purple bank and creamy cloud and shafts of golden lightning. They seemed like sentinels — guardians of a great and beautiful love born under their lofty heights, in the lonely silence of day, in the star-thrown shadow of night. They were like that love. And they held Lucy and Slone, calling every day, giving a nameless and tranquil content, binding them true to love, true to the sage and the open, true to that wild upland home.”

“It is not summer surrendering. Rather it is summer coming to the grand culmination that it has spent months vigorously preparing for. For fall is the glory of summer in splendid display. Such are the celebrations that God creates, for the intense majesty of His irrepressible character can create nothing less.”

“Christmas is a vivid and brilliantly revealing lens. And if we dare to look at ourselves through this rich and telling lens, we are able to clearly see the majesty within ourselves that we’ve so foolishly forsaken. But rather than leaving us saddened and forlorn by what we’ve abandoned, this lens also possesses ample power to give us back what we threw away.”

“A formation of geese majestically swept over my office as they flew out to feed in the local fields. And as they coursed their way into the promise of morning’s horizon, I was immediately reminded of how many things vie for my attention and consume my time that possess nothing of majesty and have no ability to fly.”

“Propaganda is one of the most grievous ways by which we abuse the majesty of words and disregard the privilege that we have to use them.”

“Never does a day pass where majesty fails to slip past the barest edges of our souls. Yet, we refuse to reach out and seize it because we have locked ourselves into the sarcophagus of lesser things. And we do that for fear that seizing the hem of majesty might sweep us off to places entirely marvelous, yet frighteningly unknown. And because it is the audacious nature of majesty to settle for nothing less than just such a journey, we find ourselves locked in a tomb for which we were not made ever-longing for a journey for which we were.”

“Majesty refuses the passive appeasement liberally bred by lesser things. Rather, majesty is brazenly audacious in a manner entirely dangerous but indomitable safe. Majesty calls us out to places that we cannot control and experiences that we cannot predict. It rails against the sedentary propensities of our dull humanity and rallies us to a greatness inherent in our design but squashed by our fears. It offers us an experience beyond ourselves that always existed within ourselves. And to forfeit such a great thing is to die on the catacombs of lesser things.”

“Beatrice hizo una referencia ante el ataúd de su padre cuando la procesión llegó a las puertas del palacio. Como insectos, las cámaras entonaron un coro de chasquidos mientras los fotógrafos se esforzaban por inmortalizar esa imagen icónica: la nueva y joven reina, inclinándose ante alguien por última vez.”
