“The greater the void, the greater the divine influx.”
― John Tauler

“As Christians we are always in tension — the anguish and at the same time in bliss. This is mad, ridiculous. But it is true — accepting the dark night just as we accept the brilliance of the day … But, on the other hand, the Christian is like someone who lives in three dimensions in a world in which the majority of people live in two.”
― Anthony Bloom, Beginning to Pray
