Quotations

“There is something greater than happiness. Something that never disappears. . . Peace. . . how can I achieve this? One must make great sacrifice. . . second, one must fight a difficult battle and a third must bear a heavy burden. All must bow to the Highest voice in our souls.” (The Hermit; photo frtidsforum.se)
