Ideal teachers are those who use themsleves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross, then having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create bridges of their own. ~ Nikos Kazantzakis

Kazantzakis-- brilliant!
Pap, by any chance do you know the quote from Mr. Kazantzakis about how we are alone in which he used the metaphor of a bloat floating in the fog or the ocean or something to that affect? I remember it from way back in the early 70's but can't recall which book it is from. My sister told me that quote changed her life.
"[This is] not science as we know it, but another kind. I've been looking for a solution which goes back to Egypt, and to the whole universe. I think musicians are on a superior level, but unlike scientists, they haven't been accepted for their abilities."
^ My father is a big fan of his work! The man knows most of Kazantzakis' renowned and unknown quotes by heart!.. The one you referred to here must be from his book entitled Ascesis: The Saviors of God.
Ooh, yeah! All right!

“Though nothing can bring back the hour Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower; We will grieve not, rather find Strength in what remains behind; In the primal sympathy Which having been must ever be...” ― William Wordsworth

That's what they want.
Leave them to gather alone,
And they'll only have themselves to feed upon.
Wisdom begins in wonder.
Henry David Thoreau
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;
In the primal sympathy
Which having been must ever be...”

We are golden
Caught in the devil's bargain
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
