![“A pearl is a beautiful thing that is produced by an injured life. It is the tear [that results] from the injury of the oyster. The treasure of our being in this world is also produced by an injured life. If we had not been wounded, if we had not been injured, then we will not produce the pearl.” quote by Stephan Hoeller](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/a9f/stephan-hoeller-279511_life_a-pearl-is-a-beautiful-thing-that-is-pro_174644.jpg)
