Excerpt from The Realm of Reality
The commonest attitude of mind is that which admits the reality of God, but which, at the same time, declares Him to be incomprehensible. If God is, God can be known. Only that is un known and unknowable which does not exist; for it is alone the non-existent which cannot be known. All discovery and all invention are based upon the conviction that if a North Pole exists, it can be discovered, or, if a truth exists, it can be understood.
It has been said that Nature has no secrets which the bold spirit may not learn. The trou ble is not with Nature that she does not more readily impart her information; but it is with man that he does not more strenuously wrest it from her. The trouble is not with God, that He does not more frequently make himself known to the children of men; it is that they do not seek after Him with sufficient intensity.
