Reverence is the work of attention. In fact, reverence is attention.
Robert Zaretsky • The Subversive Simone Weil: A Life in Five Ideas
Attention is all we have. According to philosopher Simone Weil, it is sacred — the rarest form of generosity:
“Attention alone, that attention which is so full that the ‘I’ disappears, is required of me. I have to deprive all that I call ‘I’ of the light of my attention and turn it onto that which cannot be conceived.”
