Night Comes Quotes

“So we require a compelling vision that surpasses and so relativizes the contemporary moment, a vision that breaks our cultural hypnosis and moves us to hope for more than what we see, a vision that breeds impatience and keeps us ill-adjusted to so-called reality. We need the idealistic faith to move the mountains before us: commodity fetishism, oppressive governments, corrupting entertainment, narcissistic indifference.”
― Dale C. Allison Jr., Night Comes: Death, Imagination, and the Last Things

“If God being all in all is our future, and if God can't be comprehended, then our future can't be comprehended.”
