On the impact of Christianity and the transformative power of a cathedral: •“When out of my delight in the beauty of the house of God – the loveliness of the many colored gems has called me away from external cares, and worthy meditation has induced me to reflect, transferring that which is material to that which is immaterial… I see myself dwelling, as it were, in some strange region of the universe which neither exists entirely in the slime of the earth nor in the purity of Heaven; and that by the grace of God, I can be transported from this inferior to that higher world…” ~ Abbot Suger, On the Abbey Church of St.-Denis and Its Art Treasures
And other notes this night
