“Las personas son palabras. Y así uno no es si no es diálogo. [...] Las personas son diálogo, digo, si no sus palabras no tocarían nada, como ondas en el cosmos no captadas por ningún radio, como comunicaciones a planetas deshabitados, o gritar en el vacío lunar o llamar por teléfono a una casa sin nadie. (La persona sola no existe.) Te repito, mi amor: Yo soy tú y tú eres yo. Yo soy: amor.”

“There is however difference between the theology of liberation and traditional theology, the latter being based primarily On the Word of God made incarnate in the Holy Scripture Liberation theology is of course also inspired by the Word, but its representatives are convinced that God also speaks to us in everyday events and that, for example, information obtained through the mass media can be a special way in which God speaks to us.”

“Some liberation theologians maintain that they are not influenced by Marxist philosophy at all. In this case it is necessary to discern whether they say this for tactical reasons, so as not to be compromised politically or whether they are really convinced that Marxism doesn't influence them in any way. I personally think that it is not possible to evade the influence of Marxism, as we cannot commit ourselves to the revolutionary struggle without drawing support from the conclusions of scientific socialism.”
