“Our religious activities are worthless if they aren't causing us to live and act justly.  God does not divide between justice and worship.”
― Kaitlyn Schiess, The Liturgy of Politics: Spiritual Formation for the Sake of Our Neighbor

“What good does it do one to pile up wealth
if no good or honor issues from it?
Assets are worth much less than manure:
at least dung enriches the soil,
but the wealth that is locked away
is a disgrace to the man who hoards it.”
― Heldris de Cornualles, Silence: A Thirteenth-Century French Romance

“We need need to unlearn our bent toward a private religion and a public politics - and see our participation in political life as a reflection of our very public faith.”
― Kaitlyn Schiess, The Liturgy of Politics: Spiritual Formation for the Sake of Our Neighbor

“Master Heldris of Cornwall
is writing these verses strictly to measure.
As for those who possess them, he commands and requests,
right here at the beginning of the work he is creating,
that anyone who has them should burn them
rather than share them with the kind of people
who don't know a good story
when they hear one.”
― Heldris de Cornualles, Silence: A Thirteenth-Century French Romance
