we sculpt and paint our temple

Every (wo)man is the builder of a temple, 
called his(her) body,
to the god(dess) he(she) worships, 
after a style purely his(her) own, 
nor can he(she) get off by hammering marble instead. 

We are all sculptors and painters,
and our material is our own flesh and blood and bones.”


—Henry David Thoreau
