"Dogmatics is often caricatured as the unholy science that reduces the practices of piety to lifeless propositions. But far from it: dogmatics is that delightful activity in which the Church praises God by ordering its thinking towards the gospel of Christ.... -John Webster, Holiness, p8.
"Come, let us have some tea and continue to talk about happy things." -Chaim Potok, The Chosen.

Good words!
"Were it possible for us to see further than our knowledge reaches, and yet a little way beyond the outworks of our driving, perhaps we would endure our sadnesses with greater confidence than our joys. For they are the moments when something new has entered into us, something unknown; our feelings
grow mute in shy perplexity, everything in us withdraws, a stillness comes, and the new, which no one knows, stands in the midst of it and is silent." Rilke
