“I believe that theology is facing the abyss.I must face the abyss, the abyss of existence, the abyss of mystery. (Rubem Alves, p. 189)”
“On the top of each peak you are on the edge of the abyss”
“It's true all the time everywhere or it's not true! And that one truth is always Mystery.”
“True genius does not fulfill expectations. True genius shatters it.”
“Misfortune is a stepping stone for genius, the baptismal font of Christians, treasure for the skillful man, an abyss for the feeble.”
