Quote by Pau (Pablo) Casals

The cello is like a beautiful woman who has not grown older, but younger with time, more slender, more supple, more graceful.

The cello is like a beautiful woman who has not grown older,

Summary

This quote evokes the metaphor of the cello as a beautiful woman who defies the effects of time. It suggests that just as a woman may impart elegance and allure as she grows older, the cello too ages gracefully, developing greater complexity and refinement in its sound. The comparison emphasizes the instrument's ability to become more captivating and versatile as time goes on, allowing it to produce increasingly expressive and fluid melodies, akin to the characteristics one might associate with a beautiful, youthful woman.

I think the reason we sometimes have the false sense that God is so far away is because that is where we have put him. We have kept him at a distance, and then when we are in need and call on him in prayer, we wonder where he is. He is exactly where we left him.
