As virtue is a thing that has no master, that is, is free, everything that is free will be united with virtue. Gregory of Nyssa
To be one, to be united is a great thing. But to respect the right to be different is maybe even greater. Bono
To be united to God in unity of person was not fitting to human flesh, according to its natural endowments, since it was above his dignity; nevertheless, it was fitting that God, by reason of his infinite goodness, should unite it to himself for human salvation. Thomas Aquinas
Things that are separate shall be united and acquire such virtue that they will restore to man his lost memory. Leonardo da Vinci
Things severed shall be united and shall acquire of themselves such virtue that they shall restore to men their lost memory. That is the papyrus sheets, which are formed out of several strips and preserve the memory of the thoughts and deeds of men. Leonardo da Vinci
The end of creation is that all things may return to the Creator and be united with Him. Emanuel Swedenborg
