GK Chesterton, a writer and thinker of the late 1800’s and early 1900’s is one of my consistent favorites. His “friendly enemy”, George Barnard Shaw (someone else I highly respect) called him “a man of colossal genius.” Couldn’t agree more. Let these words burrow into your soul as I hope they burrow into mine. Thanks to a good and hopefully growing friend of mine, , for reminding me of them.
I do not deny that the world needs priests to remind us that we shall all one day die; but I insist that the world also needs another kind of priest, the poet, to remind us that we are not dead yet.
GK Chesterton
