Simone Weil
“The love of our neighbor in all its fullness simply means being able to say, "What are you going through?”
Simone Weil

Helen Thomas
“You cannot criticize Israel in this country (USA) and survive”
Helen Thomas

Pope John Paul II
“No one else can want for me. No one can substitute his act of will for mine. It does sometimes happen that someone very much wants me to want what he wants. This is the moment when the impassable frontier between him and me, which is drawn by free will, becomes most obvious. I may not want that which he wants me to want - and in this precisely I am incommunicabilis. I am, and I must be, independent in my actions. All human relationships are posited on this fact.”
John Paul II, Love and Responsibility

Luigi Giussani
“Life is hunger, thirst, and passion for an ultimate object, which looms over the horizon, and yet always lies beyond it. When this is recognized, man becomes a tireless searcher.”
Luigi Giussani, The Religious Sense

Léon Bloy
“Chance is the modern word for Holy Spirit.”
Léon Bloy, The Woman Who Was Poor
