Leonard Cohen,The Stranger Song

Leonard Cohen, quote, The Favorite Game

'Children show scars like medals. 
Lovers use them as secrets to reveal. 
A scar is what happens when the world is made flesh.'

The Book of Mercy, Leonard Cohen, psalm

“I lost my way, I forgot to call on your name. 
The raw heart beat against the world, and the tears were for my lost victory. 
But you are here. You have always been here. 
The world is all forgetting, and the heart is a rage of directions, 
but your name unifies the heart, and the world is lifted into its place. 
Blessed is the one who waits in the traveller's heart for his turning.”
