Making Connections: 5691. The Icon by Carla Golian 10 37 Apr 06, 2020 11:49AM  
“The Alchemist' is the modern bible.”
Carla Golian

“The ultimate expression of love is Life.”
Carla Golian

“Greater in battle
than the man who would conquer
a thousand-thousand men,
is he who would conquer
just one —

nor a Mara banded with Brahmas,

Buddha
