“For at the heart of the uniform, reasoning is shaky and elusive: a mind in search of ideas should first stock up on appearances.”

“Et il y a des gens qui trouvent que tout cela ne grouille pas assez, qui font des vers, de la poésie, de la surréalité, qui en rajoutent. [...] Les réincarnations, les paradis, les enfers, enfin quoi : après la vie, la mort encore à vivre !”

Rather, He tells us to 'love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' He called this the 'first and greatest commandment' (Matt. 22:37-38). The results are intimate prayer and study of His Word. Our motivation changes from guilt to love.”
