Dante, "Paradiso", Canto 1: I have been in that Heaven of His most light, and what I saw, those who descend from there lack both the knowledge and the power to write. For as our intellect draws near its goal it opens to such depths of understanding as memory cannot plumb within the soul. Nevertheless, whatever portion time still leaves me of the treasure of that kingdom shall now become the subject of my rhyme. (Ciardi translation)

“Try to understand -- the American Dream is not the way of the Cross. It could very well be an antithesis of the way Jesus lived.”
Leon Blunt Horn Matthews, Rez Ramblings: Living on the Pine Ridge as 21st Century as an "Injun"

“[T]he Church is apathetic when it comes to Injustice; it is worried about quarters and has become a business based on income; it believes a political party represents its views; it has bought into the American Dream, it does not care about poverty issues; it is apathetic when it comes to injustice because they do not care about the treaties that have been broken.”
Leon Blunt Horn Matthews, Rez Ramblings: Living on the Pine Ridge as 21st Century as an "Injun"

“Many people have told me the United States was founded on a Jewish/Christian foundation of the Bible. In my study it is more than a faith foundation, and if you search the scriptures, or what Jesus said you will find the United States it is actually the opposite. The Jesus way is about emptying oneself rather than taking more. I call the American Dream "The Culture of More" because it is best described a way of life that seeks to take as much as it can. It is an easy way of doing something because the natural tendency of humans is self-centeredness.”
Leon Blunt Horn Matthews, Rez Ramblings: Living on the Pine Ridge as 21st Century as an "Injun"

“We say we are all related, and yet we do so much damage to each other.”
Leon Blunt Horn Matthews, Rez Ramblings: Living on the Pine Ridge as 21st Century as an "Injun"

“Jesus ... sought out the people who were hurting.”
