“The meaning of awe is to realize that life takes place under wide
horizons, horizons that range beyond the span of an individual life or
even the life of a nation, a generation, or an era. Awe enables us to
perceive in the world intimations of the divine, to sense in small
things the beginning of infinite significance, to sense the ultimate in
the common and the simple; to feel in the rush of the passing the
stillness of the eternal.” ― Abraham Joshua Heschel, God in Search of Man: A Philosophy of Judaism
