But the absent minded genius loved a great paradox and was considered a master of the form:
Just a single excerpt:
“These were not mere plays on words—Chesterton saw the nonsense of paradox as a “supreme assertion of truth”: “Critics were almost entirely complimentary to what they were pleased to call my brilliant paradoxes,” he admitted, “until they discovered that I really meant what I said.”
I submit that Chesterton would make a great greeter at the gates of heaven!
Help me out! : I backlog quotes from various people. With Chesterton, I didn’t get past page three, as I was copying one after another in a seemingly endless stream. Your assignment if you choose to accept the challenge: Give me just one favorite to use. If you reply, I will put you at the top of the queue for a future posting. Here is the full list from the link I picked up, from page #3 where I gave up. haha
