• The Divine was expansive, but religion was reductive. Religion attempted to reduce the Divine to a knowable quantity with which mortals might efficiently deal, to pigeonhole it once and for all so that we never had to reevaluate it. With hammers of cant and spikes of dogma, we crucified and crucified again, trying to nail to our stationary altars the migratory light of the world.

Yet these come at no small effort, and the girl who reads such fiction dreaming her troubles will end ere she departs the altar is well advised to seek at once a rational women to set her straight.

• No admiramos, apenas excusamos, al fanático que destroza este mundo por amor al otro. Pero, ¿qué decir del fanático que destruye este mundo por odio al otro? Sacrifica la existencia misma de la humanidad a la inexistencia de Dios. Ofrece sus víctimas no al altar, sino simplemente para afirmar la ociosidad del altar y el vacío del trono. Está dispuesto a arruinar incluso esa ética primaria por la que viven todas las cosas, por su extraña y eterna venganza sobre alguien que nunca vivió en absoluto.

  Gilbert K. Chesterton

• Regardless of the advertising campaigns may tell us, we can't have it all. Sacrifice is not an option, or an anachronism; it's a fact of life. We all cut off our own limbs to burn on some altar. The crucial thing is to choose an altar that's worth it and a limb you can accept losing. To go consenting to the sacrifice.

• I will love you like God, because of God, mighted by the power of God. I will stop expecting your love, demanding your love, trading for your love, gaming for your love. I will simply love. I am giving myself to you, and tomorrow I will do it again. I suppose the clock itself will wear thin its time before I am ended at this altar of dying and dying again. God risked Himself on me. I will risk myself on you. And together, we will learn to love, and perhaps then, and only then, understand this gravity that drew Him, unto us.
