“In my mind are all the tides, their seasons, their ebbs and their flows. In my mind are all the halls, the endless procession of them, the intricate pathways. When this world becomes too much for me, when I grow tired of the noise and the dirt and the people, I close my eyes and I name a particular vestibule to myself; then I name a hall.”
― Susanna Clarke, Piranesi

“From the imagination springs desires; from desires flow actions, which over time wear grooves into habits; from habits develop beliefs that justify; and from beliefs come doctrine.”
― D.J. Marotta, Liturgy in the Wilderness: How the Lord's Prayer Shapes the Imagination of the Church in a Secular Age

“Error never shows itself in its naked reality, in order not to be discovered. On the contrary, it dresses elegantly, so that the unwary may be led to believe that it is more truthful than truth itself. IRENAEUS OF LYONS”
― Justo L. González, The Story of Christianity: Volume 1: The Early Church to the Dawn of the Reformation

“The resurrection of the dead to the glory of the new Jerusalem and a renewed earth marks the end of the wilderness. Therefore, today, in the here and now, the call of God to His church is the call to go to Him into the wilderness and to dwell with Him there while we wait the completion of His redemptive work in the world, culminating in the new creation.”
