How (Not) to Speak of God, 1 of 23


"I found myself drawn to the mystics (such as Meister Eckhart), for while they did not embrace total silence, they balked at the presumption of those who would seek to colonize the name 'God' with concepts... they wrote elegantly concerning the limits of writing and spoke eloquently about the brutality of words... a loving response to God rather than a way of defining God." - p. xii
