"God is the great companion - the fellow-sufferer who understands . . . He is the ideal companion who transmutes what has been lost into a living fact within his own nature . . . He saves the world as it passes into the immediacy of his own life . . . He uses what in the temporal world is mere wreckage . . . God is the poet of the world, with tender patience leading it by his vision of truth, beauty and goodness."
Alfred North Whitehead
