“The sacred is in the ordinary...it is to be found in one's daily life, in one's neighbors, friends, and family, in one's own backyard...travel may be a flight from confronting the sacred--this lesson can be easily lost. To be looking elsewhere for miracles is to me a sure sign of ignorance that everything is miraculous.” 

 ― Abraham Harold Maslow

who said this?

“there is nothing more sacred, nothing more extraordinary, then paying close attention to the ordinary moments of our mundane lives.” . . . awhile back, while listening to podcasts, I jotted down this quote in my notebook, but failed to record who said it. All I remember is that I was listening to a poet giving a speech in a unitarian church. Can anyone help me identify the author?
