Quote

I wanted to get that sense of peace and even boredom that comes with long familiarity.

Surrounded by all the members of my dear family, enjoying the affection of numerous friends, who have never abandoned me, and possessing a sufficient share of all that contributes to make life agreeable, I lift my grateful eyes towards the Supreme Being and feel that I am happy.

There are days when my heart is troubled, and just being in the Lord's presence and thinking about His love for me fills my heart with inexplicable peace and joy.

A love for humanity came over me, and watered and fertilised the fields of my inner world which had been lying fallow, and this love of humanity vented itself in a vast compassion.

My prayer became 'May I find peace... May I love this life no matter what.' I was seeking an inner refuge, an experience of presence and wholeness that could carry me through whatever losses might come.

Love, peace and soul.

The Nobel Peace Prize opened up a door in my heart.

The greatest desire of my heart was for the Lord to manifest His will concerning me.

Joy in the universe, and keen curiosity about it all - that has been my religion.

The condition of the wounded touched my heart deeply.
