"There’s only one thing worse than not satisfying a desire. And that is not to feel any desire."

Previous Quote

There is a question whether faith can or is supposed to be emotionally satisfying. I must say that the thought of everyone lolling about in an emotionally satisfying faith is repugnant to me. I believe that we are ultimately directed Godward but that this journey is often impeded by emotion
