Water is H2O, hydrogen two parts, oxygen one, but there is also a third thing that makes water,
and nobody knows what that is.

And so 
it has taken me 
all of sixty years 
to understand 
that water is the finest drink, 
and bread the most delicious food, 
and that art is worthless 
unless it plants 
a measure of splendor in people's hearts. 


—Taha Muhammad Ali
