I claim to be no more than an average person with less than average ability. I have not a shadow of a doubt that any man or woman can achieve what I have, if he or she would make the same effort and cultivate the same hope and faith.

Know that when thou learnest to lose thyself
Thou wilt reach the Beloved.
There is no other secret to be revealed,
And more than this is not known to me.

Humankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to humankind . . . War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.

Through my life, by means of my whole life, the world has little by little caught fire in my sight until, aflame all around me, it has become almost luminous from within . . . Such has been my experience in contact with the earth, the diaphany of the Divine at the heart of the universe on fire.

Without the prophetic dimension the language of contemplation is in danger of having no grip on the history in which God acts and in which we meet God. Without the mystical dimension the language of prophecy can narrow its vision and weaken its perception of God who makes all things new.

Be confident in making your needs known to one another. For each of you, to the extent that God gives you the grace, should love and nourish one another as a mother loves and nourishes her child.

Awareness of the sacred in life is what holds our world together and the lack of awareness and sacred care is what is tearing it apart.

You have made us for yourself, and our heart is restless till it rests in you. Who will grant me to rest content in you? To whom shall I turn for the gift of your coming into my heart so that I may forget all the wrong I have done, and embrace you alone, my only good?
~~Augustine of Hippo

The peace which you proclaim with words must dwell even more abundantly in your hearts. Do not provoke others to anger or give scandal. Rather, let your gentleness draw them into peace, goodness and concord. This is our vocation: to heal wounds, to bind what is broken, to bring home those who are lost.
~~Saint Francis
