“Mary adored Jesus as the Bridegroom of souls. Union is the final purpose of love. Jesus by the gift of His substance in the Eucharist unites Himself with our souls as with His dear spouses. As a Bridegroom, He gives them all His possessions, His name, His heart, His whole Self, but on the condition that the soul reciprocates.

“Every question "runs in a vicious circle" because political life as a whole is an endless chain consisting of an infinite number of links.

“We try to evade the question of existence with property, prestige, power, possession, production, fun, and, ultimately, by trying to forget that we- that I- exist. No matter how much he thinks of God or goes to church, or how much he believes in religious ideas , if he, the whole man, is deaf to the question of existence, if he does not have an answer to it, he is marking time, and he lives and dies like one of the million things he produces. He thinks of God, instead of experiencing God.” IfsThinkingMenTryingBelieveDoeIdeasMatterWholeWisdomDiesFunChurchReligiousAnswersForgetExistenceMillionsProducePropertyProductionsPossessionDeafPrestigeMarking TimeExperiencing God Author:Erich Fromm
