Quote by Rowan Williams

“A holy person makes you see things in yourself and around you that you had not seen before; that is to say, enlarges the world rather than shrinking it. ...Holiness [is] not an extra special kind of goodness... [or] competing levels of how good you are. It's ...about being involved in the world. A holy person is somebody who is not afraid to be at the tough points in the centre of what it's like to be a human being... this boils down to something extremely simple and extremely difficult, which is that holy people, however much they may enjoy being themselves, are not obsessively interested in themselves. They allow you to see not them, but the world around them. They allow you to see not them, but God. You come away from them feeling not, "Oh, what a wonderful person," but "What a wonderful world," "What a wonderful God," or even, with surprise, "What a wonderful person I am too.”
