From Nicolas of Cusa: “The more I comprehend that you are incomprehensible, O my God, the more I attain to you, because I attain better the object of my desire . . . . The eternal principle which has given birth to my desire leads it to an unending, infinite end . . . . The end of the intellect is simply to penetrate all things while not penetrating them. It is satisfied neither by the intelligible which it knows, nor by what it does not know; it is satisfied only by him whom it knows to be so intelligible that he can never be totally understood.”
