Voice of the Day: Rebecca Harding Davis

We are all of us from birth to death guests at a table which we did not spread. The sun, the earth, love, friends, our very breath are parts of the banquet ... Shall we think of the day as a chance to come nearer to our Host, and to find out something of [God] who has fed us so long?

- Rebecca Harding Davis
American novelist and social activist (1831-1910)
