Two Thousand X One

“Through all this ordeal his root horror had been isolation, and there are no words to express the abyss between isolation and having one ally. It may be conceded to the mathematicians that four is twice two. But two is not twice one; two is two thousand times one. That is why, in spite of a hundred disadvantages, the world will always return to monogamy.”
― G.K. Chesterton, The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare

The Task

Truth is eternal,
knowledge is changeable.
It is disastrous to confuse them.

Madeleine L'Engle

Push back against the age as hard as it pushes against you. What people don't realize is how much religion costs. They think faith is a big electric blanket, when of course, it is the cross.

Flannery O'Connor

How is it possible?

How is it that God permeates the universe, that everything that is - comes from his hand; that every thought and emotion we have - has significance only in Him yet we are neither shaken nor inflamed by the reality of His presence, but able to live as though He did not exist? How is this truly Satanic deceit possible? Romano Guardini

Looking for Something?

O nata lux de lumine, Jesu redemptor saeculi, dignare clemens supplicum Laudes preces que sumere. Qui carne quondam contegi dignatus es pro perditis. Nos membra confer effici, tui beati corporis.
