Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God:
But only he who sees, takes off his shoes,
The rest sit round it, and pluck blackberries.
- Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Aurora Leigh, book 7, cited by Robert K. Johnston in Reel Spirituality, writing about the paradox of God's immanence and transcendence in our world, especially as it relates to encountering God in films.
