Mysticism keeps people sane, and destroying mystery creates morbidity
Drawn from what G. K. Chesterton said
What G. K. Chesterton actually said
- G. K. Chesterton English writer and Christian apologist (1874 to 1936)
Mysticism keeps men sane. As long as you have mystery you have health; when you destroy mystery you create morbidity. The ordinary man has always been sane because the ordinary man has always been a mystic.
