“Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit
fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They
always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until
he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in
monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is
possible that God says every morning, "Do it again" to the sun; and
every evening, "Do it again" to the moon. It may not be automatic
necessity that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every
daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that
He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown
old, and our Father is younger than we.”
G.K. Chesterton
