Gregory of Nyssa: "This truly is the vision of God: never to be satisfied in the desire to see him."

Καὶ τοῦτό ἐστιν ὄντως τὸ ἰδεῖν τὸν Θεὸν τὸ μηδέποτε τῆς ἐπιθυμίας κόρον εὑρεῖν.

”This truly is the vision of God: never to be satisfied in the desire to see him.” (De Vita Moysis, TLG 2017.042, 239)
