At times I mourn the world I knew, the hopes of my generation, flowers in hair, dancing to The Dead, seeking a universal music, "the language of peace", as Jimi Hendrix would say. Patti Smith (in Bread of Angels )

What do we do? We step back and seek within ourselves what is needed to be done and serve the best we can. Patti Smith (in Bread of angels )

Mary Magdalene by Delacroix In the Delacroix museum in Paris there hangs the artist's rendering of Mary Magdalene. Nothing is as rich as the simplicity of the human face, intrepid, unadorned, more awash with light than loss. With head cocked, she gazes up to her crucified master. Her face imparts hope and despair. The master has touched her forehead, she sees as he sees, humankind will run amok a thousand times in his name. Patti Smith (in Bread of Angels )
