Here is a quote from The Calendar of the Soul by Rudolph Steiner. It is the quote for the 46th week (February 16-22). I feel it speaks to the theme of this series of drawings.

The world is threatening to stun

The inborn forces of my soul;

Now, memory, come forth

From spirit depths, enkindling light;

Invigorate my inward sight

Which only by the strength of will

Is able to sustain itself.
