More From George Herbert

If nothing that can be seen can either be god or represent him to us as he is, then to find god we must pass beyond everything that can be seen and enter into darkness. since nothing that can be heard is god, to find him we must enter into silence. since god cannot be imagined, anything our imagination tells us about him is ultimately a lie and therefore we cannot know him as he really is unless we pass beyond everything that can be imagined and enter into an obscurity without images and without the likeness of any created thing.

We were expelled from paradise, but it was not destroyed. the expulsion from paradise was in one sense a piece of good fortune, for if we had not been expelled, paradise would have had to be destroyed.

For communication to have meaning it must have a life. it must transcend "you and me" and become "us." if i truly communicate, i see in you a life that is not me and partake of it. and you see and partake of me. in a small way we then grow out of our old selves and become something new. to have this kind of sharing i cannot enter into a conversation clutching myself. i must enter into it with loose boundaries. i must give myself to the relationship, and be willing to be what grows out of it.

The earth is not a lair, neither is it a prison. the earth is a paradise, the only one we'll ever know. we will realize it the moment we open our eyes. we don't have to make it a paradise-it is one. we have only to make ourselves fit to inhabit it. the man with the gun, the man with murder in his heart, cannot possibly recognize paradise even when he is shown it.

This is the thing: art is more important than making a show, something that amuses people. art is something that needs to give to the public, to the actors, to the artist - to give something that makes life the paradise it can be. life can be a paradise. still, i believe that. even if there is trump, there can be a paradise.

We were created in order to live in paradise, and paradise was ordained to serve us. what was ordained for us has been changed; it is not said that this has also happened with what was ordained for paradise.

Part of the racialized sexism wants everyone to think that a 15-year old mexican is not a girl, she’s a woman. we know she’s a girl. we can never emphasize this enough, because this is the fate of colored girls globally right now: the denial of their girlhood, the denial of their childhood, and the constant state of risk and danger they are living in.

The left think that america is a special place, but not because of anything the people here did to make it special. it just happens to be. and the people who were here are here simply by winning life's lottery. it's all fate; it's all luck. and if anybody else in the world wants to come to this one special place, then nobody has the right to tell them they can't because we are all immigrants.

[the] events by which the fate of nations is not materially changed, leave a faint impression on the page of history, and the patience of the reader would be exhausted by the repetition of the same hostilities [between rome and persia], undertaken without cause, prosecuted without glory, and terminated without effect.

I wish that i could write. i think that's a wonderful outlet for an artist. you are ultimately in control. your fate is not determined by outside influences. you can write wherever you are. i don't think i have the talent.
