A language that takes our emotions seriously and gives them real weight in our lives encourages us to think and be and act differently.
Dorothee SolleTo take sides with life and experience how we can transcend ourselves is a process that has many names and faces. Religion is one of those names.
Dorothee SolleFor me as a woman pride is not really sin, but rather something that I still have to learn. The male conception of the person who rebels against God by affirming himself, by acting proudly, arrogantly, and without constraints, is not a woman's concern. Rather, we women are in danger of not developing any pride, of never becoming independent, of constantly remaining within too narrow boundaries.
