Quote by Paul Valery

God made everything out of nothing, but the nothingness shows through.

God made everything out of nothing, but the nothingness show

Summary

This quote suggests that although God created everything in existence ex nihilo (out of nothing), there is a lingering presence or reminder of the "nothingness" from which it originated. It implies that the nature of the cosmos still retains hints of its original void, highlighting its own imperfections or limitations. This statement can be seen as a philosophical reflection on the inherent incompleteness or imperfect state of creation despite its divine origin.

And as He spoke, He no longer looked to them like a lion; but the things that began to happen after that were so great and beautiful that I cannot write them. And for us this the end of all the stories, and we can most truly say that they all lived happily ever after. But for them it was only the beginning of the real story. All their life in this world and all their adventures in Narnia had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on for ever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.
