Over-soul

"The Supreme Critic on the errors of the past and the present, and the only prophet of that which must be, is that great nature in which we rest, as the earth lies in the soft arms of the atmosphere; that Unity, that Over-soul, within which every man's particular being is contained and made one with all other."

Happiness

And we, who have always thought
Of happiness as rising, would feel
The emotions that almost overwhelms us
Whenever a happy thing falls.

Rilke
