- 1. Presentation created January 19, 2010 by Tamra Blanchard
- 2. Three passions have governed my life: The longings for love, the search for knowledge, And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
- 3. Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness. In the union of love I have seen In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
- 4. With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of [people]. I have wished to know why the stars shine.
- 5. Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens, But always pity brought me back to earth; Cries of pain reverberated in my heart Of children in famine, of victims tortured And of old people left helpless.
- 6. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, And I too suffer. This has been my life; I found it worth living.
- 7. Poem by-Bertrand Russelladapted Music by Enya “A Day Without Rain”
