That great Cathedral space which was childhood.

Summary

This quote suggests that childhood can be seen as a vast and remarkable expanse, akin to a grand cathedral space. It highlights the notion that childhood is a time of boundless imagination, wonder, and possibility. Just as cathedrals are often characterized by their awe-inspiring architecture and sense of sacredness, childhood is regarded as a formative period filled with extraordinary experiences, innocent joy, and a profound sense of discovery. It speaks to the immense importance and impact that childhood has in shaping an individual's understanding of the world and their place within it.
