Lighter Things

I love this quote on the site of TitusOneTen who has recently added me to his blogroll. Thanks Brother Causticus.

It is our intention to speak the truth in love;
failing that, to speak the truth;
and, when neither of these are possible, to speak.
Unless things are perfectly unspeakable.

      Aber mit der Heimat
      geht man immer herum,
      durch die Welt, dort und dort
      Peter Handke

      No one could describe
      the Word of the Father;
      but when He took flesh from you,
      O Theotokos,
      He consented to be described,
      and restored the fallen image to its former beauty.
      We confess and proclaim our salvation in word and image.
