We can know what God is not, but we cannot know what He is.

A person can do other things against his will, but belief is possible only in one who is willing.

Let us, on both sides, lay aside all arrogance. Let us not, on either side, claim that we have already discovered the truth. Let us seek it together as something which is known to neither of us. For then only may we seek it, lovingly and tranquilly, if there be no bold presumption that it is already discovered and possessed.

If you don't believe it you won't understand it.

Never judge a philosophy by its abuse.

For you [God] are infinite and never change. In you "today" never comes to an end: and yet our "today" does come to an end in you, because time, as well as everything else, exists in you. If it did not, it would have no means of passing. And since your years never come to an end, for you they are simply "today."

When we read a book, our most essential trait - imagination - is given the opportunity to soar.
