Madeleine L’Engle called George MacDonald “the grandfather of us all–all of us who struggle to come to terms with truth through imagination.”

Christ died to save us, not from suffering, but from ourselves; not from injustice, far less from justice, but from being unjust. He died that we might live—but live as He lives, by dying as He died who died to Himself.
God is not bound to punish sin; he is bound to destroy it.
George MacDonald states that “of all writers I know,{the apostle}Paul seems to me the most plainly, the most determinedly practical in his writing. What has been called his mysticism is at one time the exercise of a power of seeing, as by spiritual refraction, truths that had not, perhaps have not yet, risen above the human horizon.”
