"If anyone has a thought of God, it does not match God's worth - what could that be? So far as in him lies, let him think of a tremendous light of supreme beauty, unthinkable and unapproachable, possessing every good power and every attractive virtue, concerned for all, full of compassion, passionless, good, omniscient, completely prescient, true, sweet, brilliant, unquenchable" (Clement, Selections from the Prophetic Scriptures, 21, Ferguson, 161-162)
