awe, n.All

Awe enables us to sense in small things the beginning of infinite significance.

Awe is religion and mystery its church.

Awe is showing respect with your mouth wide open.

Awe is a sense for transcendence, for the reference everywhere to mystery beyond all things. It enables us to perceive in the world intimations of the divine.

Awe is an intuition for the dignity of all things, a realization that things not only are what they are but also stand, however remotely, for something supreme.

Awe is that out of which philosophy arises.

Awe is respect with the mouth open.

Awe is lost when we lose ourselves in consideration of the imagined form and meaning of our acts instead of being impelled by their force.
