It's a fantastic thing that from moment to the next moment if God were to have stopped for a split second we would disintegrate into nothingness. And the incredible thing is that God breaths this breath and keeps each of us in existence, in being, even when we chose to reject God. Now if I had that kind of power I would snuff you out! But God doesn't.

When people were hungry, Jesus didn't say, "Now is that political or social?" He said, "I feed you." Because the good news to a hungry person is bread.

Without forgiveness, there is no future.

Brothers and sisters of Egypt, you have given the world the most precious gift: the belief that ultimately right will prevail.

I am not interested in picking up crumbs of compassion thrown from the table of someone who considers himself my master. I want the full menu of rights.

Differences are not intended to separate, to alienate. We are different precisely in order to realize our need of one another.

To forgive is not just to be altruistic.
