Thomas Merton

I suppose what makes me most glad is that we all recognize each other in this metaphysical space of silence and happening, and get some sense, for a moment, that we are full of paradise without knowing it.

The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more you try to avoid suffering the more you suffer because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt.

Optymizm chrześcijański bazuje na nadziei zwycięstwa, która przekracza jakąkolwiek tragedię.

Prawdziwa milosc przenika tajemnice i samotnosc kochanej osoby, pozwalajac jej zachowac swoje sekrety i pozostawia jej wewnetrzna wolnosc.

Every moment and every event of every man's life on earth plants something in his soul.
