Brother Quotes

“This human need for mysticism – surrender to an unknown truth, union – stands at the helm of all romantic feeling. It is, in essence, the same intimacy known in a mother’s arms; in those who are deprived of the experience, the need freezes and, distorted, it can rent a life.

This will be a true and fitting celebration of the coming of Jesus Christ to this earth.”
