Love Always Requires Courage And Involves Risk.

If We Want To Be Heard We Must Speak In A Language The Listener Can Understand And On A Level At Which The Listener Is Capable Of Operating.

Some Catholics Have A Concept I Very Much Admire: The Sacrament Of The Present Moment. It Suggests That Every Moment Of Our Lives Is Sacred, And That We Should Make Of Each Moment A Sacrament. Were We To Do This We Would Think Of The Entire World As Diffused With Holiness. Wherever We Might Be Would Be A Holy Place For Us, And We Would See The Holy, Even Sainthood, In Everyone We Encounter.

In Thinking About Miracles, I Believe That Our Frame Of Reference Has Been Too Dramatic. We Have Been Looking For The Burning Bush, The Parting Of The Sea, The Bellowing Voice From Heaven. Instead We Should Be Looking At The Ordinary Day-to-day Events In Our Lives For Evidence Of The Miraculous, Maintaining At The Same Time A Scientific Orientation.

There Is No Worse Bitterness Than To Reach The End Of Your Life And Realized You Have Not Lived.

In And Through Community Lies The Salvation Of The World.
