“Great Love has many attributes, and shrines For varied worshippers, but his force divine Shows most its many-named fulness in the man Whose nature multitudinously mixed-- Each ardent impulse grappling with a thought-- Resists all easy gladness, all content Save mystic rapture, where the questioning soul Flooded with consciousness of good that is Finds life one bounteous answer.” MenLoveSoulShowsForceEasyAnswersConsciousnessDivineHe ManImpulseAttributesQuestioningGreat LoveMysticRaptureArdentGladnessShrinesWorshippersGrappling Book:Delphi Complete Works of George Eliot (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of George Eliot (Illustrated)

“Just as in earthly life lovers long for the moment when they are able to breathe forth their love for each other, to let their souls blend in a soft whisper, so the mystic longs for the moment when in prayer he can, as it were, creep into God.” LoveLongSoulMomentsAblePrayerLoversBreatheMysticismCreepsMysticBlending In Author:Soren Kierkegaard
