    To try to write love is to confront the muck of language: that region of hysteria where language is both too much and too little, excessive ... and impoverished.
    Roland Barthes (1915–1980)

    There is not a greater paradox in nature,—than that so good a religion [as Christianity] should be no better recommended by its professors.
