“The socialist immune system is powerful because it compares an ideal socialism of the imagination, where people truly care for one another, with the grubby and exploitative reality of capitalism, as we find it in the real world. When the defects of actually existing socialism are acknowledged, then they are treated as temporary or accidental faults, due to hostile outside forces or flawed leaders. If the faults are too grave, then the defective system is no longer described as socialist. We return to the starting point, comparing idealized socialism with existing, always-defective capitalism. With due goodwill, it is claimed, socialism will work better next time.”

“Everything was just as he had expected; everything was done just as it always is. The doctor’s pretentious self-importance was familiar—he had seen the same in himself at court —and the sounding, and listening, the needless questions with obvious answers, and a heavy look that seemed to say, Listen, just leave it to us, we’ll take care of everything—we know precisely how to make the arrangements, it’s the same for anybody. It was exactly the same as at court.”

“Reaparece aqui o realismo cristão, que não deita fora nada do que existe. A realidade, na sua misteriosa persistência e complexidade, é portadora dum sentido da existência com as suas luzes e sombras. É isto que leva o apóstolo Paulo a dizer: "Sabemos que tudo contribui para o bem daqueles que amam a Deus" (Rm 8, 28). E Santo Agostinho acrescenta: tudo, "incluindo aquilo que é chamado mal". Nesta perspectiva global, a fé dá significado a todos os acontecimentos, sejam eles felizes ou tristes.”
