“A divine revelation should not consist only in uprooting us from the world’s profanity in order to install us statically within a sacred world, in the bosom of which we could continue to lead almost the same life we led in the profane world. To enter into revelation is not merely to change objects as we do furniture. It is to be converted. Not to be converted once, but to be converted always. Sacred forms, rites, symbols and the Scriptures are basically conversion-makers, which means that we are never done with converting, never done with understanding, because they perplex and surpass all understanding.”

“Contrary to the opinion which sees in philosophy only gratuitous hypotheses and unfounded claims, it must be said that philosophy, as much as science, seeks to arrive at an exact knowledge of what is. In this, there is no difference between the two, and if there is a really philosophical aspect of science insofar as it is not content with a mathematical description of reality, there is also a truly scientific aspect of philosophy in that it does not content itself with simply reshuffling presumptions. Both disciplines, that is, seek to *think* about reality in its truth”
