"Most people arrive at tortured conclusions via blind and painful routes. They don't like it when someone shows up in a balloon. You can't expect anyone to trust revelation if they haven't experienced it themselves. Those who haven't, only know reason. And since revelation is a thing apart, and cannot be accounted for reasonably, they will never believe you. This is the great division of the world, and always has been. Now, when reason and revelation run together, why, then you have something, a great age. But in this city, now, reason is predominant. To argue from any other point of view or by any other means, is subversive."
