Art is a form of play rejoicing before the face of God.

We are at home here. Alienation is unnecessary. Contact with reality at a deep level is part of the Christian's life. He enters into reality, rather than escaping from it. The flight from reality is a mark of Eastern and classical mysticism, not of Christianity.

How can you say that modern art is ugly,when you worship the Lord in a building painted like this?

We do not know what we see, but we see what we know.

Art is a form of play rejoicing before the face of God.

Art cannot be used to show the validity of Christianity; it should rather be the reverse.

Art tries, literally, to picture the things which philosophy tries to put into carefully thought-out words.
