To send light into the darkness of men's hearts - such is the duty of the artist.
People are like stained - glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
Deep into that darkness peering long I stood there wondering fearing doubting dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.
Now God be praised that to believing souls gives light in darkness comfort in despair.
