restless
Thou awakest us to delight in Thy praise; for Thou madest us for Thyself, and our heart is restless, until it repose in Thee. By love may He be gotten and holden; but by thought never. Both of these are about the limits of thinking your way to something. The Cloud's author says the mind just can't get there and you shouldn't try. Augustine, at the start of a whole book of thinking, says the same thing a different way. We spend most of our time on this site trying to think our way to things. Noted. |
