“It is reasonable to love the Absolute absolutely for the same reason it is reasonable to love the relative relatively.”

“Why is it so difficult for us to think in relative terms? Well, for the good reason that human nature loves absoluteness, and erroneously considers it as a state of higher knowledge.”

“To our natural and human reason, I say that these terms ‘large,’ ‘small,’ ‘immense,’ ‘minute,’ etc. are not absolute but relative; the same thing in comparison with various others may be called at one time ‘immense’ and at another ‘imperceptible.”

“Faith is an insertion of absolute conviction that is assume without reason and is defended against all reason.”

“. . . you can't do anything absolutely by reason. That's because reason depends on postulates. Postulates defy proof and yet they are essential to reason.”

“Those who have no absolute values cannot let the relative remain merely relative; they are always raising it to the level of the absolute.”
