“When I see brokenness, poverty and crime in inner cities, I also see the enormous potential and readiness for transformation and rebirth.

Then we witness social change in action.”

“On building homes for fallen angels: When I was small - I sought a home, a place to go and rest my bones. Then founded something, of my own, I lived among the restless stones. If seeking leads you back to evil, what good is that, I asked a weevil. He said a home is what you make, it can't be real, if it is fake...
