Summary

This quote suggests that faith is a deeply-rooted belief or conviction that exists beyond the realm of rational thinking. It implies that faith resides in a sacred space within the heart, inaccessible to logical analysis or reasoning.

However, faith is portrayed as a secure and nourishing oasis that replenishes the spirit, emphasizing its immeasurable value and distinctiveness from intellectual pursuits.
