And he did it out of sheer love of man, and for man he gave his life and was crucified.
And all this he did with no hope of future reward.

In his conception of things there was no future life.

He, who fairly burnt with immortality, denied himself immortality--such was the paradox of him.

He, so warm in spirit, was dominated by that cold and forbidding philosophy, materialistic monism.

I used to refute him by telling him that I measured his immortality by the wings of his soul, and that I should have to live endless aeons in order to achieve the full measurement.
Whereat he would laugh, and his arms would leap out to me, and he would call me his sweet metaphysician; and the tiredness would pass out of his eyes, and into them would flood the happy love-light that was in itself a new and sufficient advertisement of his immortality.
Also, he used to call me his dualist, and he would explain how Kant, by means of pure reason, had abolished reason, in order to worship God.
