“Small universes compose great universes: our galaxies are the dust in another cosmos, and the dust in our world contains suns and stars—infinitely small or infinitely great according to the point of view. An individual is therefore a vast cosmos in his own right, and the ups and downs of his life are just the same ups and downs as those of the macrocosms beyond him and the microcosms within him. To the eye of wisdom size makes no difference: every mote, every being, every cosmos is an exemplar of the one archetypal rhythm.”
