“For he who does not love is already dead.” Just as there is an art of worship to be learned in ever finer and nobler ways, so is there an art of love to be learned in even higher and nobler ways of loving. A great lover is an artist indeed, and has won by sacrifice and sorrow this divine capacity. Like the poet, he is born and not made, and he is not so common a phenomenon as many people would suppose. Happy is the man who has this capacity; let him ask no other blessedness for within him is the Light of the World. Without love, indeed, which is the creative force of Deity in our souls, all things would cease to be. Descartes said: I think therefore I am. Let us put it thus: I love therefore I am. For he who does not love is already dead. - Clara Codd, The Creative Power https://youtube/watch?v=QgaTQ5-XfMM
