The soul has been imaged as the inner man, and as the inner sister or spouse, the place or voice of God within, as a cosmic force in which all humans, even all things living, participate, as having been given by God and thus divine, as conscience, as a multiplicity and as a unity in diversity, as a harmony, as a fluid, as fire, as dynamic energy."

2		"The many contains the unity of the one without losing the possibilities of the many."

3		"We might call the unfathomable depth in the image, love, or at least say we cannot get to the soul of the image without love for the image."
