Quotes
|
| "In a world that hates inferiority...the various things
that weaken us and bring along with them feelings of inferiority can be
very fruitful to the soul." |
| "I hope there is a spiritual renaissance taking place
in our time, I hope that it's not just spiritual, I hope its also a soul
renaissance…a real renaissance of life itself. We can think about
a renaissance in our own personal lives too… and enter that spirit
of rebirth. It's a wonderful image, very creative, and it's also iconoclastic
in a sense. I mean that if we're really going to have a rebirth, that means
that some things have to die off. And that can be painful, and we hang
on to them. So there is that side of it too. " |
