“Una religión vaga —el hecho de sentir a Dios en la naturaleza, etc., — resulta tan atractiva porque es todo emociones y ningún trabajo, como mirar las olas desde la playa. Pero jamás llegaréis a Terranova disfrutando de ese modo del Atlántico, y no conseguiréis la vida eterna simplemente sintiendo la presencia de Dios en las flores o en la música. Tampoco llegaréis a ningún sitio estudiando los mapas sin echaros al mar. Y tampoco estaréis muy seguros echándoos al mar sin un mapa. En otras palabras: la teología es práctica, especialmente ahora.”

“To be naive is to be unaware of how stupid and cruel other people are; but, by some definitions, ignorance is nearly the opposite of naivety in being a kind of cynicism, in being unaware of their intelligence and humanity. It seems to be a normal although unfortunate case that the great many of us consciously abhor ignorance in others yet subconsciously practice it ourselves: as naivety is apparent and well-known to inflict its damage upon oneself; whereas the alternative and the easier, ignorance, its damage upon others.”
