No one is good but God alone. What is good is therefore divine, what is divine is therefore good.
God is not merely good, but goodness; goodness is not merely divine, but God.
God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.
Only a completely unintelligible God can be said to be absolutely good and absolutely powerful yet tolerate the world as it is.
A man in the view of absolute goodness, adores, with total humility. Every step downward, is a step upward. The man who renounceshimself, comes to himself.
God is absolutely good; and so, assuredly, the cause of all that is good.
Whatever may be the mysteries of life and death, there is one mystery which the cross of Christ reveals to us, and that is the infinite and absolute goodness of God. Let all the rest remain a mystery so long as the mystery of the cross of Christ gives us faith for all the rest.
It is not so important that many should be good as you, as that there be some absolute goodness somewhere; for that will leaven the whole lump.
Some people talk as if meeting the gaze of absolute goodness would be fun. They need to think again.
God will cease to be God, if he brought into being a single person with the hall-mark of inferiority.
