Just a few
thoughts
I have bumped into many significant quotes lately and they
are very much worthy of contemplation.
·
‘Everyone deserves a safe place to call home’ –
Vinnies Australia
·
The very notion of dialogue has atrophied
throughout our culture, as partisan, racial, economic and ideological divisions
have undermined civility and the basic proposition that we can learn from a
dialogue with those with whom we disagree. – Robert McElroy
·
"God trusts us and accompanies us with
patience. He does not get discouraged, but always instills hope in us. … He
does not keep track of your shortcomings but encourages your potential. … In
this way God accompanies us: with closeness, mercy, and tenderness." –
Pope Francis
·
"There was a time, even in our churches,
when people spoke of a holy war or a just war," the pope told Russian
Orthodox Patriarch Kirill in their March 16 video meeting. "Today we cannot
speak in this manner. A Christian awareness of the importance of peace has
developed. Wars are always unjust, since it is the people of God who pay. Our
hearts cannot but weep before the children and women killed, along with all the
victims of war. War is never the way."
