1624 citations

Friendship exhibits a glorious nearness by resemblance to Heaven itself where the very multitude of the blessed (which no man can number) increases the fruition which each has of God. For every soul, seeing Him in her own way, doubtless communicates that unique vision to all the rest. That, says an old author, is why the Seraphim in Isaiah's vision are crying Holy, Holy, Holy to one another (Isaiah VI, 3). The more we thus share the Heavenly Bread between us, the more we shall all have.
