Summary

This quote highlights the concept of space as attributed to God, suggesting that it was designed to provide a variety of places and possibilities beyond one specific location. The mention of Princeton here seems to imply a symbolic representation of limited experiences, suggesting that without the existence of space, everything would be confined to a single setting and lack diversity. It emphasizes the notion of spatial freedom that allows for exploration, diversity, and different experiences in different locations.
