Quote of the day...

'It's so quiet, peaceful and solemn, not like me rushing about...not like us, all that yelling and scraping, not like that Frenchman and our gunner...with their scared and bitter faces, those clouds are different, creeping across that lofty, infinite sky. How can it be that I've never seen that lofty sky before? Oh, how happy I am to have found it at last. Yes! It's all vanity, it's all illusion, everything except that infinite sky. There is nothing, nothing--that's all there is. But there isn't even that. There's nothing but stillness and peace. Thank God for that!' -Tolstoy, War and Peace
