Robertson Davies Quotes

The Older I Grow The Less Christ's Teaching Says To Me. I Am Sometimes Very Conscious That I Am Following The Path Of A Leader Who Died When He Was Less Than Half As Old As I Am Now. I See And Feel Things He Never Saw Or Felt. I Know Things He Seems Never To Have Known. Everybody Wants A Christ For Himself And Those Who Think Like Him. Very Well, Am I At Fault For Wanting A Christ Who Will Show Me How To Be An Old Man? All Christ's Teaching Is Put Forward With The Dogmatism, The Certainty, And The Strength Of Youth: I Need Something That Takes Account Of The Accretion Of Experience, The Sense Of Paradox And Ambiguity That Comes With Years!
