Grace strikes us when we are in great pain ....Sometimes at that moment a wave of light breaks into our darkness, and it is as though a voice were saying, 'You are accepted.'

Man is able to decide for or against reason, he is able to create beyond reason or to destroy below reason

Wine is like the incarnation--it is both divine and human

The courage to be is the courage to accept oneself, in spite of being unacceptable.

Astonishment is the root of philosophy.

I hope for the day when everyone can speak again of God without embarrassment.

We have to build a better man before we can build a better society.
