War alone brings up to its highest tension all human energy and puts the stamp of nobility upon the people who have the courage to meet it.”

“I also think we need unconventional political action, and I increasingly think that there is a need for people of faith to be able to do the kind of things that people of faith did 40 years ago in the heat of the civil rights revolution.

May God help us ourselves by the eternities that separate the Aucas from a Comprehension of Christmas and Him, who, though he was rich, yet for our sakes became poor so that we might, through his poverty, be made rich.”

By working our hardest and happily enduring the hardships of life we are able to create a sense of peace and clarity in ourselves.”
