Greater Mysteries

Famous quotes containing the words greater and/or mysteries:

“Even if it is given that someone understands the name ‘God’ to signify what is said, namely, ‘that than which a greater cannot be conceived,’ it does not follow that what is signified by this name exists in the nature of things, but only that it exists in the apprehension of the understanding.”
—Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225–1274)

“The mysteries remain,
I keep the same
cycle of seed-time
and of sun and rain;”
