“...the moment I absolutize my view of things, I can't be enriched by anything. (Carlos Mesters, p 119).”

“Jesus revealed a face of God that bothered society profoundly! (Carlos Mesters, p. 122)”

“And I said, 'That last thing is what you can't get, Carlo. Nobody can get to that last thing. We keep on living in hopes of catching it once and for all.”

“I find few things more personally enriching than exploring the parameters of my own ignorance.”
