Occupational Threshold

Men's curiosity searches past and future, and clings to that dimension.
But to apprehend the point of intersection of the timeless 
with time, is an occupation for the saint— 
No occupation either, but something given and taken,
in a lifetime's death in love, ardour and selflessness, and self-surrender.

T. S. Eliot Four Quartets
