"Yesterday, in Louisville, at the corner of Fourth and Walnut, suddenly I realized that I loved all the people and that none of them were or could be totally alien to me. As if waking from a dream - a dream of my separateness . . . But it cannot be explained. There is no way of telling people that they are all walking around shining like the sun."
Thomas Merton, 1958
