“The saints believe what every lover knows Who, gazing on one face, can plainly see The glory latent in the flesh, a rose. If love is what leads lovers to compose Their songs of praise and deeds of charity, Then saints believe what every lover knows.”
― Donald T. Williams, Mere Humanity: G.K. Chesterton, C.S. Lewis, and J. R. R. Tolkien on the Human Condition
