Nothing Is More Human Than For Man To Desire Naturally Things Impossible To His Nature. It Is, Indeed, The Property Of A Nature Which Is Not Closed Up In Matter Like The Nature Of Physical Things, But Which Is Intellectual Or Infinitized By The Spirit. It Is The Property Of A Metaphysical Nature. Such Desires Reach For The Infinite, Because The Intellect Thirsts For Being And Being Is Infinite.
