Quote of the Day (Leonard Bernstein, on Stillness)


“Our most emotionally active life is lived in our dreams, and our cells renew themselves most industriously in sleep. We reach highest in meditation, and farthest in prayer. In stillness every human being is great; he is free from the experience of hostility; he is a poet, and most like an angel.”—Leonard Bernstein, “On Stillness,” in Findings (1982)
