“The course of a great statesman resembles that of navigable rivers, avoiding immovable obstacles with noble bends of concession, seeking the broad levels of opinion on which men soonest settle and longest dwell, following and marking the almost imperceptible slopes of national tendency, yet always aiming at direct advances, always recruited from sources nearer heaven, and sometimes bursting open paths of progress and fruitful human commerce through what seem the eternal barriers of both.” MenHumansSometimesSeemsCoursesHeavenLevelsOpinionPathProgressSourceEternalRiversDirectSeekingFollowingObstaclesNobleTendenciesSettlingBarriersBroadsCommerceAvoidingStatesmenSlopesBurstingConcessions Book:My Study Windows Source: My Study Windows
“Spirituality is much wider than any particular religion, and in the larger ideas of it that are now coming on us even the greatest religion becomes no more than a broad sect or branch of the one universal religion, by which we shall understand in the future man's seeking for the eternal, the divine, the greater self, the source of unity and his attempt to arrive at some equation, some increasing approximation of the values of human life with the eternal and the divine values.” MenHumansIdeasSelfValuesSpiritualityGreaterDivineParticularSourceEternalUniversalUnitySeekingHuman LifeBranchesBroadsEquationsSectsApproximationValue Of Human Life Book:Bulletin Source: Bulletin

It leads in practice to a denial of Christ and to the service of hatred rather than love.” WisdomChristianHateEvilChristEnemyPracticeInspireSourceDirectHatredSeekingActiveResistanceContactDenialIntimateCollaborationLead In Author:Thomas Merton
