I have gotten so old, I forget about some of my peak experiences with books and authors.

I forgot about this book and Maugham for over a decade, but saw a quote by him and it brought up one I used to quote all the time and one of my very favorites.

I was able to whip this right off my mind for the first time in a decade.

From one of my favorite books-"The Razors Edge" by the great Somerset Maugham.

"The Path to wisdom is steep and narrow, and as dangerous as the razors edge."

And a new one from him

“A God that can be understood is no God. Who can explain the Infinite in words?”

W. Somerset Maugham, The Razor's Edge
