“The Trinity is the answer to the questions of Plato.  If there is only one God, what does He think about?  He thinks an eternal thought, or about His Eternal Son.  If there is only one God, whom does He love?  He loves His Son, and that mutual love is the Holy Spirit.  I firmly believe that the great philosopher was fumbling about for the mystery of the Trinity, for his great mind seemed in some small way to suspect that an infinite being must have relations of thought and love, and that God cannot be conceived without thought and love.    But it was not until the word became Incarnate that man knew the secret of those relations and the inner life of God.”  Archbishop Fulton Sheen (The Divine Romance)
