By reading the scriptures I am so renewed that all nature seems renewed around me and with me. The sky seems to be a pure, a cooler blue, the trees a deeper green. The whole world is charged with the glory of God and I feel fire and music under my feet.

  • -- Thomas Merton 托马斯·默顿

通过阅读圣经,我是如此的新生,所有的自然似乎在我周围和我更新。天空似乎一片纯净,一片湛蓝,树木一片翠绿。整个世界充满了上帝的荣耀,我感到脚下有火焰和音乐。
