Heresy arises as a pained outcry to liberate us from this…
““Heresy arises as a pained outcry to liberate us from this strange, narrow pit, to raise us from the darkness of letters and platitudes to the light of thought and feeling. Such heresy eventually takes its stand in the centre of morality. It has a temporary legitimacy, for it must consume the filthy froth clinging to mindless faith. […...] On the desolate ruins wrought by heresy, the sublime knowledge of God wil build her temple.””
