"The paradox in Christian truth is invariably due to the fact that it is the truth that exists for God. The standard of measure and the end is superhuman; and there is only one relationship possible: faith."
"Philosophy cannot and should not give us an account of faith, but should understand itself and know just what it has indeed to offer, without taking anything away, least of all cheating people out of something by making them think it is nothing."
"The most common form of despair is not being who you are."
"Therefore do not deceive yourself! Of all deceivers fear most yourself!"
"What looks like politics, and imagines itself to be political, will one day unmask itself as a religious movement."
