J.R.R. Tolkien
“I wish it need not have happened in my time,’ said Frodo. ‘So do I,’ said Gandalf, ‘and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

“Our idea of God tells us more about ourselves than about Him.”
Sean Leary, The Words and Wisdom of Thomas Merton.

Brian Zahnd
“If Christianity is not seen as countercultural and even subversive within a military-economic superpower, you can be sure it is a deeply compromised Christianity. A Christianity at home in an empire is the kind of compromised Christianity that the book of Revelation so passionately and creatively warns us against.”
Brian Zahnd, Postcards from Babylon: The Church In American Exile

C.S. Lewis
“There have been men before now who got so interested in proving the existence of God that they came to care nothing for God Himself…as if the good Lord had nothing to do but exist! There have been some who were so occupied in spreading Christianity that they never gave a thought to Christ.”
C.S. Lewis, The Great Divorce

“We are so obsessed with doing that we have no time and no imagination left for being. As a result, men are valued not for what they are but for what they do or what they have - for their usefulness.”
Sean Leary, The Words and Wisdom of Thomas Merton.
