...One loves the sunset when one is sad...

Summary

This quote suggests that people tend to appreciate the beauty of a sunset more when they are feeling down or melancholic. It implies that sadness can evoke a deeper emotional connection with nature's beauty, allowing individuals to find solace in the fleeting moments of a setting sun. The contrasting emotions of sadness and the awe-inspiring sunset create a profound reflection on the transience of life and the ability to find comfort in the world around us, even during challenging times.

I know that faith made my life possible and that of many others like me... Reason hardly warranted Anne Sullivan's attempt to transform a little half-human, half-animal, deaf-blind child into a complete human being. Neither science nor philosophy had set such a goal, but faith, the eye of love did. I did not know I had a soul. Then the God in a wise heart drew me out of nothingness with cords of human love and the life belt of language, and lo, I found myself. In my doubly shadowed world faith gives me a reason for trying to draw harmony out of a marred instrument. Faith is not a cushion for me to fall back upon; it is my working energy.
