"It is the highest power of divine moments that they abolish our contritions also.  I accuse myself of sloth and unprofitableness day by day; but when these waves of God flow into me I no longer reckon lost time.  I no longer poorly compute my possible achievement by what remains to me of the month or the year; for these moments confer a sort of omnipresence and omnipotence which asks nothing of duraiton, but sees that the energy of the mind is commensurate with the work to be done, without time." (288)
