My children, mark me. i pray you. know! god loves my soul so much that his very life and being depend upon his loving me, whether he would or no. to stop god loving me would be to rob him of his godhood; for god is love no less than he is truth; as he is good, so is he love as well. it is the absolute truth, as god lives... if anyone would ask me what god is, i should answer: god is love, and so altogether lovely that creatures all with one accord essay to love his loveliness, whether they do so knowingly or unbeknownst, in joy or sorrow.

It is not given to man to know the whole truth. his duty lies in living up to the truth as he sees it, and in doing so, to resort to the purest means, i.e., to non-violence. god alone knows absolute truth. therefore, i have often said, truth is god. it follows that man, a finite being, cannot know absolute truth. nobody in this world possesses absolute truth. this is god's attribute alone. relative truth is all we know. therefore, we can only follow the truth as we see it. such pursuit of truth cannot lead anyone astray.
