Accustom The Eye To Calmness

A  L  O  H  A !

"Everything has beauty, 

but not everyone sees it.” 

             Confucius

“What we do see depends 

mainly on what we look for. . .

In the same field the farmer will 

notice the crop, the geologists the 

fossils, botanists the flowers, 

artists the colouring, sportsmen 

the cover for the game. Though we 

may all look at the same things, 

it does not all follow that 

we should see them.” 

            John Lubbock

“To learn to see- to accustom 

the eye to calmness, to patience, 

and to allow things to come up to it; 

to defer judgment, and to 

acquire the habit of approaching 

and grasping an individual case 

from all sides. This is the first 

preparatory schooling. . . ” 

                      Friedrich Nietzsche
