"This expresses in an extreme form the state of Mind towards which things are constantly tending, called paradox by logic, metaphor by literature, genius or madness by popular consent. The humorist says, describing the beauty of a certain film actress. 'When she comes into the room, the room comes in with her.'

One sentence decides heaven and earth;
One sword pacifies all sublunary things.

"When you have really seen one flower, you have seen not only all flowers, but all non-flowers. One principle, one life, one animate or inanimate manifestation moves and upholds all things."

~~ R. H. Blyth
