I cannot, indeed, conceive how a revelation can be really suited to the complex nature of man unless it addresses itself to his whole being: and how can it do so unless it comes to him in a thousand forms; through the outward world, through history, tradition, and poetry; through appeals to the understanding as well as to the heart; through the lives of holy men, the Bible, the Church, the Holy Spi...
