Zion, thou art doubtless anxious for news of thy captives; they ask after thee, they who are the remainder of thy flock. — © Judah Halevi

I have sought to come near you; I have called to you with all my heart; and when I went out towards you, I found you coming towards me.
My pen is my harp and my lyre; my library is my garden and my orchard.
