“You asked for my hands, that you might use them for your purpose. I gave them for a moment, then withdrew them, for the work was hard. You asked for my mouth to speak out against injustice. I gave you a whisper that I might not be accused. You asked for my eyes to see the pain of poverty. I closed them, for I did not want to see.”

“Let us breathe again, brethren. Although we are nothing in our hearts, perhaps something of us may lurk in the heart of God.”
