Nothing is more surprising than...
Nothing is more surprising than the rise of the new within ourselves. We do not foresee or observe its growth. We do not try to produce it by the strength of our will, by the power of our emotion, or by the clarity of our intellect. On the contrary, we feel that by trying to produce it we prevent its coming ... The new being is born in us, just when we least believe in it. It appears in remote corners of our souls that we have neglected for a long time. It opens up deep levels of our personality that had been shut out by old decisions and old exclusions.
