    “In considering the study of physical phenomena, not merely in its bearings on the material wants of life, but in its general influence on the intellectual advancement of mankind, we find its noblest and most important result to be a knowledge of the chain of connection, by which all natural forces are linked together, and made mutually dependent upon each other; and it is the perception of these relations that exalts our views and ennobles our enjoyments.”― Alexander von Humboldt, COSMOS: A Sketch of the Physical Description of the Universe, Vol. 1Please consider supporting:https://www.patreon.com/benjaminbennetthttps://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=XKY2S8J49Y6NL

    “Grace transforms our failings full of dread into abundant, endless comfort … our failings full of shame into a noble, glorious rising … our dying full of sorrow into holy, blissful life. …. Just as our contrariness here on earth brings us pain, shame and sorrow, so grace brings us surpassing comfort, glory, and bliss in heaven … And that shall be a property of blessed love, that we shall know in God, which we might never have known without first experiencing woe.”― Julian of Norwich, Revelations of Divine LovePlease consider supporting:https://www.patreon.com/benjaminbennetthttps://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=XKY2S8J49Y6NL

    "The world is not divided into stand-alone entities. It is we who divide it into objects for our convenience. A mountain chain is not divided into individual mountains: it is we who divide it up into parts that strike us as in some way separate. A countless number of out definitions, perhaps all of them, are relational: a mother is a mother because she has a child; a planet is a planet because it orbits a star; a predator is such because it hunts prey; a position in space is there only in relation to something else. Even time exists only as a set of relations."-Carlo Rovelli, HelgolandPlease consider supporting:https://www.patreon.com/benjaminbennetthttps://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=XKY2S8J49Y6NL
