The age of nations has passed. Now, unless we wish to perish, we must shake off our old prejudices and build the Earth. The more scientifically I regard the world, the less can I see any possible biological future for it except in the active consciousness of its unity.

You are not a human being in search of a spiritual experience. You are a spiritual being immersed in a human experience.

You have told me, O God, to believe in hell. But you have forbidden me to think...of any man as damned

You must overcome death by finding God in it.

Reach beyond your grasp. Your goals should be grand enough to get the best of you.

Mankind is now caught up, as though in a train of gears, at the heart of a continually accelerating vortex of self-totalisation.

Above all, trust in the slow work of God.
