Because there are three classes of intellects: one which comprehends by itself; another which appreciates what others comprehend; and a third which neither comprehends by itself nor by the showing of others; the first is the most excellent, the second is good, the third is useless.

I am continually coming back to the belief that I know nothing, or that there are much deeper places to go with what I think I know. It’s liberating, actually. I don’t think the biggest questions can be answered with any certainty. I’m becoming more and more peaceful not knowing.

Your anger and fury at ungodliness and injustice around you is a license given to you to fulfill a purpose.

… the proper self-knowledge and self-love of every created thing is ipso facto a participation in the knowledge and love of God. The entire universe moves by desire for the Highest Good simply because every part of it loves what God loves – namely, its own being.
Everyone desires significance but not everyone is ready to go through the process of being ‘pregnant’ with the requirements that would make them to be significant.

Godliness must be presented with its profit and incentives, not only for the good of the nation and society, but of eternal value.

It is a good thing to live long but it is much more important to make a difference in life by living a life of significance.

… the divine knowing – what the Father knows, and what the Word says in response to that knowing, and what the Spirit broods upon under the speaking of the Word – all that eternal intellectual activity isn’t just daydreaming. It’s the cause of everything that is. God doesn’t find out about creation; he knows it into being. His knowing has hair on it. It is an effective act. What he knows, is. What he thinks, by the very fact of his thinking, jumps from no-thing into thing. He never thought of anything that wasn’t.
