One of the major symptoms of the general crisis existent in our world today is our lack of sensitivity to words. We use words as tools. We forget that words are a repository of the spirit. The tragedy of our times is that the vessels of the spirit are broken. We cannot approach the spirit unless we repair the vessels. Reverence for words - an awareness of the wonder of words, of the mystery of words - is an essential prerequisite for prayer. By the word of God the world was created.

It is of the essence of virtue that the good is not to be done for the sake of a reward.

Few are guilty, but all are responsible.

The course of life is unpredictable no one can write his autobiography in advance.
