“Beyond my inveterate anticlericalism, I think that Jesus was a revolutionary of love, one who was not afraid to go to the Temple to make a credible ammuìna, as we say in my area. He was aware that he was bringing with him a higher, more human, and salvific truth than that proclaimed by the sages of his time, the men of the Temple. He did not limit himself to making the revolution, he was the revolution, with all of himself and in every act of his life, without normalizing anything: That is what we must do too.
Either we commit ourselves to being the revolution or we will fail, because no change can happen in the world if it does not first happen within us. We must strip ourselves, one preconception at a time, of all the baggage that each of us carries in order to go more and more toward the truth every day.”
