Rudolf Steiner: "With the sound a [a as pronounced in father] we experience something like astonishment and wonder. In a certain sense we even take this sense of wonder into our soul when we not only say a but ach [ch here pronounced as in the German or Scottish Loch. Ach is the German equivalent of the exclamation ah!]. Ach signifies: A — I feel wonder, and with the sound ch the sense of wonder goes right into me. And if I now put an m in front and say mach [German for make or do] the result is a kind of following of what awakened wonder in me as if it were approaching me step by step — mmm — until I am entirely within it."
"Spirit Triumphant! Flame through the impotence of fettered, faltering souls! Burn up selfishness, kindle compassion, so that selflessness, the lifestream of humanity, may flow as the wellspring of spiritual rebirth!" — Rudolf Steiner
