"The
only way to find solitude is by hunger and thirst and sorrow and
poverty and desire . . . This is a country whose center is everywhere
and whose circumference is nowhere. You do not find it by traveling but
by standing still . . . , for in the inmost 'I' my own solitude meets
the solitude of every other person in the solitude of God."
