"A mass of legend and literature, which increases and will never end, has repeated and rung the changes on that single paradox; that the hands that had made the sun and stars were too small to reach the huge heads of the cattle. Upon this paradox, we might almost say upon this jest, all the literature of our faith is founded."
--G. K. Chesterton, The Everlasting Man, 1925 (Ignatius Press, 2008, p. 169)
