“ In this final phase, which remains our own, the best picture of God is the hummingbird.”

“ I soon discovered that almost all the actors I‘d begun to assemble on my little stage…were fanatical about hummingbirds…my attempts to trace the origins of this informal cult of hummingbirds,kept leading back to the Civil War…American during and after the Civil War gradually left behind a static view of existence…they came to see a new dynamism and movement in their lives…This dynamism… found perfect expression in the hummingbird.”
