And yet what man enjoys this renown less? Of thirty-three years, He lives
thirty without appearing. For three years He passes as an impostor; the
priests and the chief people reject Him; His friends and His nearest
relatives despise Him. Finally, He dies, betrayed by one of His own
disciples, denied by another, and abandoned by all.

had man more ignominy. All that renown has served only for us, to render us
capable of recognising Him; and He had none of it for Himself.

All the glory of greatness has no lustre for people who are in search of
understanding.
The greatness of clever men is invisible to kings, to the rich, to chiefs,
and to all the worldly great.
The greatness of wisdom, which is nothing if not of God, is invisible to the
carnal-minded and to the clever. These are three orders differing in kind.
Great geniuses have their power, their glory, their greatness, their
victory, their lustre, and have no need of worldly greatness, with which
they are not in keeping. They are seen, not by the eye, but by the mind;
this is sufficient.

need no worldly or intellectual greatness, with which they have no affinity;
for these neither add anything to them, nor take away anything from them.
They are seen of God and the angels, and not of the body, nor of the curious
mind. God is enough for them.
