I am the first and I am the last
I am the honored one and the scorned one
I am the whore and the holy one
I am the wife and the virgin
I am the barren one and many are my daughters
I am the silence that is incomprehensible
I am the utterance of my name.
- Gnostic prayer, found in the Nag Hammadi manuscripts
