“The ethical practices of lawyers are probably no worse than those of other professions. Lawyers bring some of the trouble on by claiming in a sanctimonious way that they are interested only in justice, not power or wealth. They also suffer guilt by association. Their clients are often people in trouble. Saints need no lawyers: gangsters do.” PeopleWayNeedsSufferingWealthJusticePracticeTroubleGuiltSaintProfessionLawyerEthicalAssociationClientsGangstersSanctimonious Author:Lawrence M. Friedman
“Empower me to be a bold participant, rather than a timid saint in waiting, in the difficult ordinariness of now; to exercise the authority of honesty, rather than to defer to power, or deceive to get it; to influence someone for justice, rather than impress anyone for gain and, by grace, to find treasures of joy, of friendship, of peace hidden in the fields of the daily you give me to plow.” GivingJoyWaitingDifficultJusticeGraceInfluenceHonestyFieldsExerciseAuthorityGainsGive MeSaintTreasureEmpoweringDeceivingImpressParticipantsOrdinariness Author:Ted Loder

“I consider Otto Rank to be one of the great spiritual giants of the twentieth century, a genius as a psychologist and a saint as a human being. Though vilified by his original community of Freudians, he never became bitter. He died a feminist and deeply committed to social justice, in 1939....His deep understanding of creativity makes him a mentor for all of us living in a postmodern world....I believe that Art and Artist, especially chapters 12 to 14, may well emerge as the most valuable psychoanalysis of the spiritual life in our time.” WorldBelieveHumansWellsMayArtSpiritualArtistI BelieveSocialUnderstandingCommunityJusticeHuman BeingsCreativityCenturyGeniusDiedOriginalsSocial JusticeSaintCommittedFeministValuableBitterOur TimeGiantsSpiritual LifeChaptersMentorTwentieth CenturyPsychologistPsychoanalysisPostmodernGreat SpiritualDeep Understanding Author:Matthew Fox

“Jesus is the mediator of justice; Mary obtains for us grace; for, as St. Bernard, St. Bonaventure, St. Bernardine of Siena, St. Germanus, St. Antoninus, and others say, it is the will of God to dispense through the hands of Mary whatever graces he is pleased to bestow upon us. With God, the prayers of the saints are the prayers of His friends, but the prayers of Mary are the prayers of His mother.” HandsMotherJesusJusticePrayerGraceSaintGods WillMaryMediators Book:The Saint Alphonsus de Liguori Collection [30 Books] Source: The Saint Alphonsus de Liguori Collection [30 Books]
