The Visible lifts our eyes to the Invisible: the Ascension of the Lord - Ep. 32

St. John Henry Newman, reflecting on the inadequacy of earthly pleasures compared to heaven, wrote: . . . from sad experience I am too sure that whatever is created, whatever is earthly, pleases but for a time and then palls and is a weariness. I believe that there is nothing at all here below that I would not at length get sick of. I believe, that though I had all the means of happiness that this life could give, yet in time I would tire of living, feeling everything trite and dull and unprofitable.
