Quote by Thornton Wilder
When God loves a creature he wants the creature to know the highes

When God loves a creature he wants the creature to know the highest happiness and the deepest misery He wants him to know all that being alive can bring. That is his best gift. There is no happiness save in understanding the whole. – Thornton Wilder
