"At Epidavros, in the stillness, in the great peace that came over me, I heard the heart of the world beat. Epidavros is merely a place symbol: the real place is in the heart, in every man's heart, if he will but stop and search it. Every discovery is mysterious in that it reveals what is so unexpectedly immediate, so close, so long and so intimately known."(Henry Miller)
