“One may formulate, as follows, a law confirmed by palaeontology and biogeography: human life has arisen and prospered only when the resources it could count on were balanced by the problems it met with. This is true, as much in the spiritual as in the physical.”

– Ortega y Gasset (1930)

“I’m a pattern thinker. I see lots of different things all at once and I reflect on them – and I think about the ways they could be social, political or artistic. But spirituality is also a part of my life.”

– IAIN BAXTER& (2011)
