Divine Insecurity

    Today's quote I discovered at the Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit. It captures a feeling that I haven't been able to put into words.  The older I get, the more I love possibility, the act of encountering things I can't explain.  The world is far wider than I ever imagined as a young woman and I love it.

“The art of reading requires that you develop a beautiful tolerance for incomprehension. The greatest books are the books that you come to understand more deeply with time, with age and with rereading.”
― Michael Silverblatt
