je ne sais quoi ‐ a quality that cannot be described or named easily.

The four characteristics of humanism are curiosity, a free mind, belief in good taste, and belief in the human race.
E. M. Forster

When the whole world is running towards a cliff, he who is running in the opposite direction appears to have lost his mind.
C. S. Lewis

Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a distant voice in the darkness; So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Fluency can be a sign that nothing is happening; fluency can actually be my signal to stop, while being in the dark from sentence to sentence is what convinces me to go on.
Philip Roth

You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Great work, John. I'd like to have one of those round elements as an ornament in my room. Simply beautiful.

---je ne sais quoi---

John, as far as I remember my French lessons during my school days, it stands for 'I don't know what'. I'm not sure however, as the French language was a difficult one for me. Because it wasn't spoken that frequently during my former career as well, I've forgotten a lot of that.
If my translation is right, it's an apt title of your fine and intriguing render/artwork. The figurative framing consisting of quotes and music links are, per usual, very well chosen.
Excellent work again!

Amazing sensation in viewing this art work, difficult to believe it is a flat surface, and the quotes and the music, you sure do lift my spirits John. Our world has difficulties, but I must admit there is much one can do to give us insight to so many aspects of mankind, and you have the gift.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
