The Universe is but one vast symbol of God

In the long-run every Government is the exact symbol of its People, with their wisdom and unwisdom; we have to say, Like People like Government

The degradation of the sense of symbol in modern society is one of its many signs of spiritual decay.

But the ground shakes, as if something's trying to push up from below, and I think of other people's mothers shaking out their duvets or even God shaking out the fabric of space-time.

O God! Put back Thy universe and give me yesterday.

The plots of God are perfect. The Universe is a plot of God.
