IV. How Can We Speak about God?
43
Admittedly, in speaking about God like this, our language is using human modes
of expression; nevertheless it really does attain to God himself, though unable
to express him in his infinite simplicity. Likewise, we must recall that
“between Creator and creature no similitude can be expressed without
implying an even greater dissimilitude”;17 and that
“concerning God, we cannot grasp what he is, but only what he is not, and
how other beings stand in relation to him.”18
