When I'm building my dome in my chapel, and I had a vision - I've worked on perpetual motion and I haven't never give it up yet. I still think it could be done, perpetual motion. I had a vision of a un resist able windmill. View quote

If the famous Clementi, whom I found here (Italy) in the year 1766, and bought of his father for seven years, is not still a Catholic, the fault is not with me.-I assured the Pope I would not endeavour to convert him. Meeting him one Sunday when we were in the country, I asked him-" Why he did not go to mass" (there was a Catholic chapel about ten miles distant) : he said-" There was no horse."-" No horse! Why don't you take the grey horse?"-"O quello, Signore, scappa via.( O that one, Gentleman, run off. )"-" Take then the black poney."-" E quello casca subito.( And that one falls quickly.)" So what with the horse that fell, and the horse that ran away, I fear Signior Clementi attended mass as seldom as you do a sermon. View quote

The consolations of the moral ideal are vigorous. They do not encourage idle sentiment. They recommend to the sufferer action. Our loss, indeed, will always remain loss, and no preaching or teaching can ever make it otherwise. But the question is whether it shall weaken and embitter, or strengthen and purify us, and lead us to raise to the dead we mourn a monument in our lives that shall be better than any pillared chapel or storied marble tomb. The criterion of all right relations whatsoever is that we are helped by them. And so, too, the criterion of right relations to the dead is that we are helped, not weakened and disabled, by them.

If you ask me whether I was deeply Christian, the answer is that I went to college chapel and had a strong polemical Christianity... It could well be that it was a polemical conviction against liberalism rather than a real conviction of the truth of Christianity. View quote

The Sacred Mirrors speak to our highest aspirations as a species: universal compassion, respect for all life, a deep appreciation of all cultures and wisdom traditions, awakened consciousness and a full flowering of our human potential. In a "chapel of beauty," they could contribute to the radical raising of awareness we so desperately need if we are to successfully navigate our way to a saner, more loving and life-affirming civilization.

"I am a shadow now, alas! alas! "Upon the skirts of human-nature dwelling "Alone: I chant alone the holy mass, "While little sounds of life are round me knelling, "And glossy bees at noon do fieldward pass, "And many a chapel bell the hour is telling, "Paining me through: those sounds grow strange to me, "And thou art distant in Humanity.
