Where is Afterburner when we need him?

oftener claimed to have reached it, and it is here they have all stumbled.
This has given rise to such common titles as First Principles, Principles of

as that one which blinds us, De omni scibili.5
We naturally believe ourselves far more capable of reaching the centre of

being might also attain to the knowledge of the Infinite. The one depends on
the other, and one leads to the other. These extremes meet and reunite by
force of distance and find each other in God, and in God alone.
Let us, then, take our compass; we are something, and we are not everything.
The nature of our existence hides from us the knowledg
