"It takes dedication, hard disciplined work, and intensive training before a dancer can move with unearthly grace and perform feats that are impossible for an untrained body. In the same way, people have found that when they practice compassion assiduously, all day and every day, they achieve new capacities of mind and heart." Karen Armstrong
