Nocturne in Black and Gold, James McNeill Whistler
Most high, utterly good, utterly powerful, most omnipotent, most merciful and most just, deeply hidden yet most intimately present, perfection of both beauty and strength, stable and incomprehensible, immutable and yet changing all things, who will enable me to find rest in You? Who will grant me that You come to my heart and intoxicate it, so that I forget my evils and embrace my one and only good, Yourself?
— St. Augustine, Confessions
