All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers.
Francois Fenelon

Francois Fenelon
Our soul is not united to our body in the ordinary sense of these terms. It is immediately and directly united to God alone.
Nicolas Malebranche
All creatures are united to God alone in an immediate union. They depend essentially and directly upon Him. Being all alike equally impotent, they cannot be in reciprocal dependence upon one another.
Nicolas Malebranche

Nicolas Malebranche
