The Power of Words (+Biography and Bibliography) (6X9po Matte Cover Finish): " OINOS. Pardon, Agathos, the weakness of a spirit new-fledged with immortality!AGATHOS. You have spoken nothing, my Oinos, for which pardon is to be demanded. Not even here is knowledge thing of intuition. For wisdom, ask of the angels freely, that it may be given!OINOS. But in this existence, I dreamed that I should be at once cognizant of all things, and thus at once be happy in being cognizant of all.AGATHOS. Ah, not in knowledge is happiness, but in the acquisition of knowledge! In for ever knowing, we are for ever blessed; but to know all were the curse of a fiend.OINOS. But does not The Most High know all? AGATHOS. That (since he is The Most Happy) must be still the one thing unknown even to Him.OINOS. But, since we grow hourly in knowledge, must not at last all things be known?AGATHOS. Look down into the abysmal distances! attempt to force the gaze down the multitudinous vistas of the stars, as we sweep slowly through them thus and thus and thus! Even the spiritual vision, is it not at all points arrested by the continuous golden walls of the universe? the walls of the myriads of the shining bodies that mere number has appeared to blend into unity?
