"The alpenglow is so holy, spiritual; even the
inspired atmosphere of the New Jerusalem is inadequate. When we read,
'And God said: Let there be light,' we are too apt to think only of the
light of the sun. But it is not the sun that makes the
day, it is Love. In this Light of light, rocks and seas and everything
is not only illumined, but transfigured and fused and changed into
religion."
