“Greater than the earth is light, greater than man is the earth, and man’s existence avails him nothing until he breathes his native air, returning to the earth, through earth returning to the light, an earthly being receiving the light on earth, received in turn by the light only through earth, earth changing to light. And never was the earth nearer the heart of light, nor light closer to the earth than in the approaching dusk at the two boundaries of night.”
