Notes 100

Our hope is that the Word is not just words.

Tomorrow has not yet happened.

“All of the parables of Christ taught us to believe in truth, not in justice.”
—John Lukacs, Remembered Past, p. 16.

“The world weighs on my free will in such a way as to make me, if I do not resist, the plaything of my impulses; in return, the exercise of my free judgment cannot leave the world untouched.”—Simone Weil, quoted in Lukacs, Remembered Past, p. 380.

“The object of our search should not be the supernatural, but the world. The supernatural is light itself; if we make an object of it we lower it.”
—Simone Weil, quoted in Lukacs, Remembered Past, p. 385.

Not to agree or disagree, but to see.
