"By the tree of knowledge we are deprived of the tree of life - and should not the latter be dearer to us than the former[?] - we who are always following the example of the old Adam... [refusing] to become children like the new Adam, [who] assumed flesh and blood and took upon himself the Cross."
-J.G. Hamann
a friend of mine shared this quote with me a few days ago. It explains so well how we look to knowledge rather than the giver of life. something i've been thinking about a lot recently...
