That is why faith, wherever it develops into hope, causes not rest but unrest, not patience but impatience.... Those who hope in Christ can no longer put up with reality as it is.

God weeps with us so that we may one day laugh with him.

Capitalism, racism and inhuman technocracy quietly develop in their own way. The causes of misery are no longer to be found in the inner attitudes of men, but have long been institutionalized.

Personal, inner change without a change in circumstances and structures is an idealist illusion, as though man were only a soul and not a body as well.

Passion is loving something enough to suffer for it.

Totally without hope, one cannot live. To live without hope is to cease to live.

Jesus' healings are not supernatural miracles in a natural world. They are the only truly 'natural' things in a world that is unnatural, demonized and wounded.

In Christian terms, evangelization and humanization are not alternatives. Nor are the vertical dimension of faith and the horizontal dimension of love for ones neighbor and political change.

The power within is strength of the spirit.

It's such a pleasure to work in these movies, it's almost like it's not really happening.

The crisis that the world finds itself in as it swings on the hinge of a new millennium is located in something deeper than particular ways of organizing political systems and economies.

Sometimes you get tempted to make something wonderful even better but in doing so you lose what was so wonderful to begin with.

When you can program your own life, you're just going to program what you already like. Because of that, people's taste becomes much more narrow-minded.
