peace in tranquility

I have enjoyed many of the comforts of life, none of which I wish to esteem lightly; yet I confess I know not any joy that is so dear to me, that so fully satisfies the inmost desires of my mind, that so enlivens, refines, and elevates my whole nature, as that which I derive from religion - from faith in God. May this God be thy God, thy refuge, thy comfort, as he has been mine.

- Johann Kaspar Lavater (1741 - 1801) Swiss physiognomist, theologian & writer
