“We are a people of different faiths, but we are one. Which faith conquers the other is not the question; rather, the question is whether Christianity stands or falls.... We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity... in fact our movement is Christian. We are filled with a desire for Catholics and Protestants to discover one another in the deep distress of our own people.” PeopleIdeasDifferentFactsChristianDesireFallChristianityAtheismMovementCatholicFilledConquerTolerateDistressProtestantsDifferent Faiths Author:Adolf Hitler

“Confessionalism relates to writers of color. I think confessional poetry is in its way very Catholic, capital C. One of the formative ideas of Confessionalism, beyond psychoanalysis, is a very actual fall from grace. And, at least in America, people of color never occupy that position of grace the way that white people do. So I think that in some very actual ways the confessional mode, strictly speaking, is not possible for non-white writers.” PeopleThinkingFallGraceCatholicPoetry IsPsychoanalysis Author:Shane McCrae

“Humility is the safeguard of chastity. In the matter of purity, there is no greater danger than not fearing the danger. For my part, when I find a man secure of himself and without fear, I give him up for lost. I am less alarmed for one who is tempted and who resists by avoiding the occasions, than for one who is not tempted and is not careful to avoid occasions. When a person puts himself in an occasion, saying, I shall not fall, it is an almost infallible sign that he will fall, and with great injury to his soul.” MenGivingPersonsSoulMatterFallLostGreaterDangerHumilityCatholicCarefulSecureOccasionsPurityInjuryAvoidingTemptedChastityInfallibleChastity PurityPurity And Love Author:Philip Neri
