The quote from Nick Cave beautifully captures the essence of the creative process, where the extraordinary often emerges from the ordinary, especially in the context of crafting meaningful ceremonies. Trusting in the stories people share can reveal hidden miracles, adding to these special occasions.

From listening/reading "Fatih, Hope and Carnage" by Nick Cave and Sean O'Hagan.
