All is One (Nature, God)

Love is nothing but joy accompanied with the idea of an eternal cause.

The eternal wisdom of God ... has shown itself forth in all things, but chiefly in the mind of man, and most of all in Jesus Christ.

The more we understand individual things, the more we understand God.

Reason connot defeat emotion, an emotion can only be displaced or overcome by a stronger emotion.

Since love of God is the highest felicity and happiness of man, his final end and the aim of all his actions, it follows that he alone observes the divine law who is concerned to love God not from fear of punishment nor love of something else, such as pleasure, fame, ect., but from the single fact that he knows God, or that he knows that the knowledge and love of God is the highest good

Yet nature cannot be contravened, but preserves a fixed and immutable order.
