Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is no great and no small, To the Soul that maketh all; And where it cometh, all things are; And it cometh everywhere.

If the red slayer think he slays, Or if the slain think he is slain, They know not well the subtle ways, I keep and pass and turn again.

We bow our heads before Thee, and we laud, And magnify thy name Almighty God! But man is thy most awful instrument, In working out a pure intent.
