A Quote from Calvin

I recently ran across an interesting quote from famed theologian John Calvin. I thought you might enjoy it.

Therefore in reading profane authors, the admirable light of truth displayed in them should remind us that the human mind, however much fallen and perverted from its original integrity, is still adorned and invested with admirable gifts from its Creator. If we reflect that the Spirit of God is the only fountain of truth, we will be careful, as we would avoid offering insults to Him, not to reject or condemn truth wherever it appears. In despising the gifts we insult the giver.

An important thought from a man who was not exactly a champion of the arts. God can use anything to get across His truth. Something to keep in mind.
