"In the end, it is not in our perfect observance of religious practice that we are set free from our insecurities, but by trusting the human heart of a person (Gal.2.16) ...There comes a time for most of us when only this blind faith in incarnate love will see us through." Daniel O’Leary (The Tablet)
"In a free society some are guilty but all are responsible." Rabbi Abraham Heschel
"God wants us to sit for him not that he may paint our portrait but that he may paint his own within us." Fr. John at Ampleforth Abbey, North Yorkshire
"Some philosophers regard it as conceivable that the world emerged from nothing, while others respond that this is impossible. Thomists, by contrast argue that it is inconceivable that the world came from nothing, but that it did." Fr. Herbert McCabe (The Tablet)
"It is customary to blame secular science and anti-religious philosophy for the eclipse of religion in modern society. It would be more honest to blame religion for its own defeats. Religion declined not because it was refuted but because it became irrelevant, dull, oppressive... When religion speaks only in the name of authority rather than with the voice of compassion the message becomes meaningless." Rabbi Abraham Heschel
