Quote by Robert Gately

“Scientist’s intellect is their ship as they navigate through the treacherous waters of detail where, hopefully, their good sense and rationale leads them to truth. Religious leaders already have the truth and those tenants that are not well-defined don’t need a defense because faith shields them from the onslaught of details and facts." - Fillossofee, Messages from a Grandfather - an ebook”

“Teddy was reminded of Paterson, but that polyglot population had appeared healthier, more hopeful, the American mood more fertile then in its promises, and the streets of Silk City with their little yards holding a fuchsia bush or a blue-robed plaster statue of the Virgin more livable than these stacked, stinking, ill-lit dens. He had been a part of the population then, a schoolboy immersed in its details of competition and expectation and childish collusion and hierarchy, alive in its struggle and too absorbed to judge or pity, whereas now he came upon it from outside, from above, as an agent of power and ownership, an enforcer and avenger, the representative of the system which squeezed the lowly by the same iron laws whereby it generation profits for the lucky and strong.”

“Introverted seekers need introverted evangelists. It's not that extroverts can't communicate the gospel, either verbally or nonverbally, in ways that introverts find appealing, it's that introverted seekers need to know and see that it's possible to lead the Christian life as themselves. It's imperative for them to understand that becoming a Christian is not tantamount with becoming an extrovert.”

“le moi est avant tout une instance de maitrise. C est un système de défense au service du principe de plaisir contre le dehors, mais aussi contre ces pulsions intimes et étrangères a la fois qui nous habitent. Ce sont ces remparts qu il s agit d abattre, ce barrage contre le pacifique qu il faut ruiner. Disons-le autrement, le moi est une organisation pour résister a la passivité essentielle du sujet a l égard de l autre. Le moi est foncièrement résistance a Dieu.”

“En ce moment, je me sépare tant soit peu de moi-même et vais à la rencontre de la personne qui s'approche; je fais semblant de la reconnaitre bien que je ne sache encore qui c'est. Comme l'addition d'un ami nous transforme curieusement, même à distance... L'utilité des amis est incontestable, en ce qu'ils nous font rentrer dans la réalité. Et pourtant, est-ce assez pénible d'y devoir rentrer, se sentir mêlé, adultéré, fondu, de faire partie d'un autre être ? A mesure que cette personne approche, je cesse d'être Moi pour devenir Moi plus quelqu'un.”
