Sayfa 5 - If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household!
Sayfa 146 - On the other hand, the conception of the Absolute implies a possible existence out of all relation. We attempt to escape from this apparent contradiction, by introducing the idea of succession in time. The Absolute exists first by itself, and afterwards becomes a Cause. But here we are checked by the third conception, that of the Infinite. How can the Infinite become that which it was not from the first? If Causation is a possible mode of existence, that which exists without causing is not infinite;...
Sayfa 147 - Thus we are landed in an inextricable dilemma. The Absolute cannot be conceived as conscious, neither can it be conceived as unconscious : it cannot be conceived as complex, neither can it be conceived as simple : it cannot be conceived by difference, neither can it be conceived by the absence of difference : it cannot be identified with the universe, neither can it be distinguished from it.
Sayfa 146 - That which is conceived as absolute and infinite must be conceived as containing within itself the sum, not only of all actual, but of all possible, modes of being.
Sayfa 37 - God has made of one blood all the nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth...
Sayfa 148 - Absolute, whether acting voluntarily or involuntarily, has passed from a condition of comparative imperfection to one of comparative perfection; and, therefore, was not originally perfect. If the state of activity is an inferior state to that of quiescence, the Absolute, in becoming a cause, has lost its original perfection.
Sayfa 151 - A Cause cannot as such be absolute : the Absolute cannot as such be a cause. The cause, as such, exists only in relation to its effect ; the cause is a cause of the effect, the effect is an effect of the cause. On the other hand, the conception of the Absolute implies a possible existence out of all relation.
Sayfa 335 - I do, forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth myself to those that are before, I press towards the mark, to the prize of the supernal vocation of God in Christ Jesus.
Sayfa 157 - Personality comprises all that we know of that which exists : relation to personality comprises all that we know of that which seems to exist. And when from the little world of man's consciousness and its objects, we would lift up our eyes to the inexhaustible universe beyond, and ask to whom all this is related, the highest existence is still the highest personality; and the Source of all Being reveals Himself by His name I AM.
Sayfa 153 - The almost unanimous voice of philosophy, in pronouncing that the absolute is both one and simple, must be accepted as the voice of reason also, so far as reason has any voice in the matter. But this absolute unity, as indifferent and containing no attributes, can neither be distinguished from the multiplicity of finite beings by any characteristic feature, nor be identified with them in their multiplicity.
