The universal order and the personal order are nothing but different expressions and manifestations of a common underlying principle.

I do have a strong sense of an order in the universe.

I've always had this belief that you want to write about universal truths.

I have a different idea of a universal. It is of a universal rich with all that is particular, rich with all the particulars there are, the deepening of each particular, the coexistence of them all.

We are all bound to the throne of the Supreme Being by a flexible chain which restrains without enslaving us. The most wonderful aspect of the universal scheme of things is the action of free beings under divine guidance.

The rehabilitation of order as a universal principle, however, suggested at the same time that orderliness by itself is not sufficient to account for the nature of organized systems in general or for those created by man in particular.

The world is not to be put in order; the world is order, incarnate. It is for us to harmonize with this order.

We all have different ways to do things.

If the universal is the essential, then it is the basis of all life and art. Recognizing and uniting with the universal therefore gives us the greatest aesthetic satisfaction, the greatest emotion of beauty.

Odd how the creative power at once brings the whole universe to order.
