Contact Quote by Pythagoras

“We come from God. As the tree from the root…” quote by Pythagoras — Download Open image

“We come from God. As the tree from the root and the stream from the spring; that's why we should always be in contact with Him, as the trunk from the root. Because the stream dries up when it is separated from the spring and the tree dies when is uprooted.”
