If someone proved to me that Christ is outside the truth, and that in reality the truth were outside Christ, I should prefer to remain with Christ.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:3)

Friedrich Hölderlin, the great 19th century poet, writes of "that mysterious yearning toward the chasm."

You cannot force meaning.

It’s a truth that is discovered, like Everest is discovered.
It’s just there when you look

Aussies are deeply ashamed of their roots, and there’s justification for it to an extent. I’ve sensed a deep level of self-hatred for quite some time.
Now imagine post-WW2 Germans. That’s gotta be a level of self hatred even the bluest haired Melbournian cannot wrap their head around.

Jokic drops a 50-15-16 to comeback in OT on the same night Charles Barkley says he’ll never be in the same conversation as the all time great centres (refusing to elaborate)
