UnknownI think minimalism is something I just got attracted to just in general because I like the empty space, if you think about it, like there's a lot of empty space.

It is my hope that this devotion to Jesus in the Eucharist will spread to more and more parishes and dioceses across our nation.

Bran FerrenWe discovered, like infants opening their eyes for the first time, that God's coming upon earth out of love for us had radically changed the world, because he had remained with us. As we walked about the city, or traveled to different cities and countries, it was not the beautiful and interesting things around us that attracted us.

Sherman AlexieI think ultimately, people are selfish in that department [blues], in a good way - the reason we're attracted to art is because it somehow reflects us.

Sometimes even more than we like hearing there are people in better states than us.

Pope FrancisLove is the source of our greatest errors; but when it is even partially refined it is the energy and the passion of the soul in its search for Good, the force that joins us to Good and joins us to the world through Good.
