One Substance Quotes

“If you are wearing a gold necklace do I say 'Please remove the necklace, so I may see the gold?' I can't see the gold without seeing the necklace, and I can't see the necklace without seeing the gold. There are multitudes of gold jewelry in the world, but there is only one substance 'Gold.' All the gold jewelry comes from this one substance, the jewelry takes many forms and shapes, but they all arise out of this one substance — gold.”
