No one can ever understand the sacraments unless he has what might be called a “divine sense of humor.†A person is said to have a sense of humor if he can “see through†things; one lacks a sense of humor if he cannot “see through†things. No one has ever laughed at a pun who did not see in the one word a twofold meaning. To materialists this world is opaque like a curtain; nothing can be seen through it. A mountain is just a mountain, a sunset just a sunset; but to poets, artists, and saints, the world is transparent like a window pane—it tells of something beyond; for example, a mountain tells of the Power of God, the sunset of His Beauty, and the snowflake of His Purity.
