"We see then, that it's not the great things, the great pleasures, not even the great ambitions that retain the life in our faces, but this little well being that comes along of being in a fire place in the winter, this grateful sensation of a glass of liquor that we drink (...)"

This reminds me a lot o Saint Tomas Aquinas about the importance of the small pleasures in life "a hot bath, a glass of wine, chocolat".

"oh Lord, wake us with joy and give us knowledge", what a great and simple, but profunda prayer!
