Nonsense is Faith, and Faith, Nonsense
"This simple sense if wonder at the shapes of things, and at their exuberant independence of our intellectual standards and our trivial definitions, is the basis of spirituality as it is the basis of nonsense. Nonsense and faith (strange as the conjuction may seem) are the two supreme syblolic assertions of the turhtu that to draw out the souls of things with a syllogism is as impossible as to draw out Leviathan with a hook. The well-meaning person who, by merely studying the logical side of things, has decided "faith is nonsense," does not know how truly he speaks; later it may come back to him in the form that nonsense is faith."
G.K. Chesterton’s ‘A Defence of Nonsense’ in Essays of Today and Yesterday, from "The Defendant."
