From here it sounds great to say we'll all get together soon, but all I know is this: you can call me fifty days or fifty years from now and I'll be glad to see you.

Works
Apart from the Lawes Hooker's lesser writings which are few in number fall into three groups: those related to the Temple Controversy with Travers (including three sermons); those connected with the last writing of the last books of the Laws; and other miscellaneous sermons (four complete plus three fragments). At the same time Hooker argued that authority was commanded by the Bible and by the traditions of the early church but authority was something that had to be based on piety and reason rather than automatic investiture.

Richard Hooker (March 1554 – 3 November 1600) was an Anglican priest and an influential theologian. In retrospect he has been taken (with Thomas Cranmer and Matthew Parker) as a founder of Anglican theological thought.
