I came indoors after having a walk in the woods, finishing up Herta Muller's 'The Passport' (about German speaking minorities in Communist Romania), and continued this mix. As 'Mother and Child' glided up through my speakers I read the Berry quote and knew all was well, just as all was sad, and just as all was everything else under the sun.
6 years or so I have been wanting to find out what song Discovery Channel used for one of their adverts for a crime programme. Allegri - Miserere Tallis Scholars.... FINALLY FOUND IT !!! THANK YOU hehe
"When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my childrens lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free."
