Love casts out fear, but we have to get over the fear in order to get close enough to love them.
Dorothy DayWe must always aim for the impossible; if we lower our goal, we also diminish our effort.
Dorothy DayOnce a priest told us that no one gets up in the pulpit without promulgating a heresy. He was joking, of course, but what I suppose he meant was the truth was so pure, so holy, that it was hard to emphasize one aspect of the truth without underestimating another, that we did not see things as a whole, but through a glass darkly, as St. Paul said.
