Human beings who blind themselves to human need make themselves less human.

Diversity may be the hardest thing for a society to live with, and perhaps the most dangerous thing for a society to be without.

The one true freedom in life is to come to terms with death, and as early as possible, for death is an event that embraces all our lives. And the only way to have a good death is to lead a good life. The more we do God's will, the less unfinished business we leave behind when we die.

What is faith? Faith is being grasped by the power of love.

It is terribly important to realize that the leap of faith is not so much a leap of thought as of action. For while in many matters it is first we must see then we will act; in matters of faith it is first we must do then we will know, first we will be and then we will see. One must, in short, dare to act wholeheartedly without absolute certainty.

Truth is always in danger of being sacrificed on the altars of good taste and social stability.

I love the recklessness of faith. First you leap, and then you grow wings.
