“Is it not by learning to read the book of nature with the eyes of faith that we come to recognize the drop of divinity that resides in our own souls though hidden, master? In the end is this not faith; to seek the light that takes us further, the light of Christ that brings that to which reason and knowledge alone can never raise itself? This is truth!”
Adriana Koulias, Temple of the Grail

“Intimacy is never separated from external elements, without which it could not be signified. Where we think we have caught hold of the Grail, we have only grasped a thing, and what is left in our hands is only a cooking pot.”

Bernard Cornwell
“â€� Mas o que é que você faria com o Graal?

� Eu iria usá-lo.

� Para quê?

� Para livrar o mundo do pecado.

� Seria um trabalho notável, mas nem Cristo conseguiu realizá-lo.

â€� Você pára de eliminar ervas daninhas entre os vinhedos só porque elas sempre voltam a nascer?”

“Life and art are nothing but associations of ideas and sorrows that nourish our illusory quest for the Holy Grail of human existence. It’s a mystery!”
Carl William Brown, Aforismi geniali di William Shakespeare.

John Cowper Powys
“I know now what the Grail is. It is the desire of the generations mingling like water with the Blood of Christ, and caught in a fragment of Substance that is beyond Matter! It is a little nucleus of Eternity, dropped somehow from the outer spaces upon one particular spot!”
John Cowper Powys, A Glastonbury Romance

“...I set down my lance, symbol of duty. I spurn those whom I love.
I relinquish all, and take up the tools of my quest.
No obstacle will stand before me. No plea for help shall find me wanting. No moon will look upon me twice lest I be judged idle.
I give my body, heart and soul to the Lady whom I seek...”
Anthony Reynolds, Warhammer: Bretonnia

“...That which is sacrosanct I shall preserve.
That which is sublime I will protect.
That which threatens, I will destroy.
For my holy wrath will know no bounds...”
Anthony Reynolds, Warhammer: Bretonnia

Caitlín Matthews
“No mystical system or divinatory tool can ever replace personally observed patterns, since these alone are the inner messengers which convey to us the guidance and sustenance which we need. However, sometimes a divinatory tool can help us *trigger recognition* of these patterns. It is only the innately lazy who rely upon the Tarot as a daily crutch or decision-making process. Hence the warning in many Tarot books about over-use of the Tarot for divination.”
Caitlín Matthews, The Arthurian Tarot: A Hallowquest Handbook
