“His attitude to physical clues was rather like that of the modern Christian to miracles. They could happen, but probably not just at the moment.”
“...rather than ask why something happened (i.e. what caused it), Jung asked: What did it happen for? This same tendency appears in physics: Many modern physicists are now looking more for "connections" in nature than for causal laws (determinism).”
“It was possible that a miracle was not something that happened to you, but rather something that didn’t. ”
“Just as there is no such thing as Christian physics or Muslim Algebra, we will see tht there is no such thing as Christian or Muslim morality.”
“Just the fact that you need me to prove I love you is probably a clue it isn’t working”
