खुशी की बुनियादी शर्तों में से एक यह जानना है कि इंसान जो, कुछ भी करता है, उसका अनंत काल में कोई अर्थ होता है।

संत हिएरोथियोस, महान शिक्षक, जिन्हें डायोनिसीयस ने अपनी पुस्तक 'डिवाइन नेम्स' में उद्धृत किया है: "चूंकि सभी निराकार रूपों को आकार देने वाला रूप स्वयं सिद्धांत है, इसलिए मसीह का दिव्य स्वरूप उन सभी रूपों में भी निराकार ही है जो आकार धारण करते हैं, क्योंकि वह हर रूप से परे है..."
St. Hierotheos, the great teacher quoted by Dionysius in his book on Divine Names: “As form giving form to all that is formless, in so far as It is the principle of form, the Divine Nature of the Christ is none the less formless in all that has form, since It transcends all form...

सौंदर्य हमेशा ताकतों के एक आंतरिक और अथाह संतुलन का प्रतिनिधित्व करता है; और यह हमारी आत्मा को अभिभूत कर देता है, क्योंकि इसकी न तो गणना की जा सकती है और न ही इसे यंत्रवत् पैदा किया जा सकता है। इसलिए सौंदर्य का अहसास हमें अपनी तर्क-बुद्धि से किसी रिश्ते को अलग-अलग रूप में समझने से पहले ही उसका प्रत्यक्ष अनुभव करा देता है; वैसे इसमें हमारे अपने शारीरिक और मानसिक कल्याण की रक्षा भी छिपी होती है, जिसे हम नजरअंदाज करने की भूल नहीं कर सकते।
Beauty always represents an inward and inexhaustible equilibrium of forces; and this overwhelms our soul, since it can neither be calculated nor mechanically produced. A sense of beauty can therefore permit us the direct experience of relationships before we can perceive them, in a differentiated manner, with our discursive reason; in this, incidentally, there is a defence for our own physical and psychic well-being, something that we cannot neglect with impunity.

जबकि पहले मनुष्यों की पहचान केवल उनकी संस्कृति से होती थी, अचानक से यह समाज आर्थिक आधार पर बंटी हुई श्रेणियों में विभाजित हो गया और कारखाने के सस्ते उत्पादों के साथ, सौंदर्यहीन गरीबी घरों में घुस आई; बदसूरत, अर्थहीन और सुविधाहीन गरीबी आज की आधुनिक उपलब्धियों में सबसे ज्यादा फैली हुई है।
Whereas previously men were differentiated only by their culture, the community is all of sudden split into economically determined classes and, with the cheap products of the factory, a poverty without beauty invades the homes; ugly, senseless, and comfortless poverty is the most widespread of all modern achievements.

सच्चा प्रतीकवाद इस तथ्य पर निर्भर करता है कि वे चीजें, जो समय, स्थान, भौतिक प्रकृति और कई अन्य सीमित विशेषताओं में एक-दूसरे से भिन्न हो सकती हैं, एक ही आवश्यक गुण को धारण और प्रदर्शित कर सकती हैं।
True symbolism depends on the fact that things, which may differ from one another in time, space, material nature, and many other limitative characteristics, can possess and exhibit the same essential quality.
