Where is the quote 'naked and alone the soul reaches the end..'


In the scene where Laura is looking through his collection of pictures and finds one of a person standing in front of a large white tunnel. You hear her reading the quote underneath , something like - "Naked and alone the soul reaches the end of it's journey". Does anyone know where this is from ?

They might have come up with it for the movie.

If you love Jesus Christ and are 100% proud of it copy this and make your signature!

"Naked and alone the soul stands before God; friends are gone, work, plans, pleasures, troubles, all fall off, and seem to vanish into nothing; and God and the soul stand face to face." - Frederick Charles Woodhouse, "The Life of the Soul in the World"

No idea if this was the source, but it is similar.

[Edit: The actual quote in the movie is "The soul comes to the end of its long journey and, naked and alone, draws near to the divine." It's in a caption for Bosch's The Ascent Into the Empyrian (http://www.art.com/asp/sp-asp/_/PD--12440435/SP--A/IGID--1346650/The_A scent_of_the_Blessed_Detail_from_a_Panel_of_an_Alterpiece_Thought_to_b e_of_the_Last_Judgement.htm?sOrig=CRT&sOrigId=68&ui=3A8D9A2AAA DC47688426C700CA1480D9).]
