Last updated on: August 27, 2014 at 12:46 am By Acton Institute

By Joseph Sunde In a recent video blog from For the Life of the World, Evan Koons reads a beautiful poem by Gerard Manley Hopkins over some striking visual imagery. Watch it below: Hopkins begins by highlighting the wondrous and mysterious pulse of nature, moving eventually to the acts of we “mortal things,” prone to appease the self, and bent on crying, “Whát I dó is me: for that I came.” But he doesn’t stop here, for surely man was neither created nor destined...

Sixpence Economics

Last updated on: August 18, 2014 at 3:24 pm By Acton Institute
