PERFECTION · VERIFIED QUOTE

Archbishop Leighton Quote

“It is a union with a Higher Good by love, that alone is endless perfection. The only sufficient object for man must be something that adds to and perfects his nature, to which he must be united in love; somewhat higher than himself, yea, the highest of all, the Father of spirits. That alone completes a spirit and blesses it,—to love Him, the spring of spirits.”
