“... LOVE - rules the world, keeps the stars in their courses,
causes the conjunction of atoms to form new substances,
holds things down on the earth’s surface.
It is the force which regulates and orders the organic and the inorganic
and which becomes incorporated into the essence of everything and of all things,
like a guide to salvation and to the endlessness of evolution.”
- Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind, p. 293.
