A philosophy without heart and a faith without intellect are abstractions from the true life of knowledge and faith. The man whom philosophy leaves cold, and the man whom real faith does not illuminate, may be assured that the fault lies in them, not in knowledge and faith. The former is still an alien to philosophy, the latter an alien to faith.

Georg Hegel (1770-1831) German philosopher
Enzyklopaedie der philosophischen Wissenschaften [Encyclopedia of Philosophical Sciences] (1816)
