To reinvent your own country you need a great audacity of hope.

That is why faith, wherever it develops into hope, causes not rest but unrest, not patience but impatience.... Those who hope in Christ can no longer put up with reality as it is.

Passion is loving something enough to suffer for it.

The truth of human freedom lies in the love that breaks down barriers.

Christian hope does not promise successful days to the rich and the strong, but resurrection and life to those who must exist in the shadows of death. Success is no name of God. Righteousness is.

The church's final word is not 'church' but the glory of the Father and the Son in the Spirit of liberty

It is only when human beings see themselves simply as human beings, no longer as gods, that they are in a position to perceive the wholly other nature of God.
