We shall not be able to rebuild our shattered world until we recover our faith in eternal realities, and we shall not do that until we discover spirit within ourselves.

The clergy have never been able to discover, nor will they ever, the beneficial tribulations and useful abyss that the providential spirit meets as it empties itself.

Physical strength can never permanently withstand the impact of spiritual force.

Religion will not regain its old power until it can face change in the same spirit as does science. Its principles may be eternal, but the expression of those principles requires continual development.

If we couldn't get strong from what we lose, and what we miss, and what we want and can't have, then we couldn't ever get strong enough.

"Liberty may be gained, but can never be recovered." (Bk2:8)

...when a deep injury is done to us, we never recover until we forgive.

My point here is simply that, even if there was a historical Jesus lying back of the gospel Christ, he can never be recovered. If there ever was a historical Jesus, there isn't one any more. (Opening Statement by Robert Price)

But a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be brought back to life.

The day when efficacy would prevail over truth will never come for the Church, for then the gates of hell would have prevailed against her.

We're ne'er like angels till our passion dies.

Faith, even when profound, is never complete. It has to be endlessly sustained or, at least, preserved from destruction.

Truth is that you cannot make a comeback if you are never lost.

Innocence, Once Lost, Can Never Be Regained. Darkness, Once Gazed Upon, Can Never Be Lost.
