“I do not worship matter; I worship the God of matter, Who became matter for my sake; Who deigned to inhabit matter; Who worked out my salvation through matter. I will not cease from honoring that matter which works for my salvation. I venerate it, though not as God.”

+ St. John of Damascus (On the Veneration of Icons)
