“The flour has to be ground fine if the bread is to be fine. As the old blues song put it, everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. It would be lovely, we think, to be the finest bread that heaven holds, but we do not want to be ground to powder. We want to be exalted without being humbled, but the Christian faith does not teach this”

(Beyond Stateliest Marble, p. 178).
