Meditation and Contemplation in Christianity

Famous quotes containing the words meditation and/or christianity:

    The real meditation is ... the meditation on one’s identity. Ah, voilĂ  une chose!! You try it. You try finding out why you’re you and not somebody else. And who in the blazes are you anyhow? Ah, voilĂ  une chose!
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    The real security of Christianity is to be found in its benevolent morality, in its exquisite adaptation to the human heart, in the facility with which its scheme accommodates itself to the capacity of every human intellect, in the consolation which it bears to the house of mourning, in the light with which it brightens the great mystery of the grave.
    Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
