Album: Iron & Wine's The Sea & the Rhythm
Book: Marilynne Robinson's Gilead
Quote (among many) from Gilead: "And I'm glad I knew it at the time, because now, in my present situation, now that I am about to leave this world, I realize there is nothing more astonishing than a human face. Boughton and I have talked about that, too. It has something to do with incarnation. You feel your obligation to a child when you have seen it and held it. Any human face is a claim on you, because you can't help but understand the singularity of it, the courage and the loneliness of it. But this is truest in the face of an infant. I consider that to be one kind of vision, as mystical as any. Boughton agrees."
