“It's not an endlessly expanding list of rights 窶� the 'right' to education, the 'right' to health care, the 'right' to food and housing. That's not freedom, that's dependency. Those aren't rights, those are the rations of slavery 窶� hay and a barn for human cattle.”
― Alexis de Tocqueville

“We see that it is not the task of Christianity to provide easy answers to every question, but to make us progressively aware of a mystery. God is not so much the object of our knowledge as the cause of our wonder.”

“Our reasoning brain is weak, and our tongue is weaker still窶�, remarks St Basil the Great. 窶廬t is easier to measure the entire sea with a tiny cup than to grasp God's ineffable greatness with the human mind.窶�10”

“Faith in God, then, is not at all the same as the kind of logical certainty that we attain in Euclidean geometry. God is not the conclusion to a process of reasoning, the solution to a mathematical problem. To believe in God is not to accept the possibility of his existence because it has been 窶徘roved窶� to us by some theoretical argument, but it is to put our trust in One whom we know and love. Faith is not the supposition that something might be true, but the assurance that someone is there.”
― Kallistos Ware, The Orthodox Way
