And It Opens



J.S. Bach: Magnificat in D Major




But sometimes
illumination
comes to our rescue
at the very moment
when all seems lost;
we have knocked at
every door and
they open on nothing
until, at last,
we stumble unconsciously
against the only one
through which we can
enter the kingdom
we have sought
in vain a hundred years
--and it opens.
--Marcel Proust
In Search of Lost Time
