"God must be allowed the right to speak……" — Thomas Merton

"God must be allowed the right to speak unpredictably.... We must find him in our enemy, or we may lose him even in our friend. We must find him in the pagan or we will lose him in our own selves, substituting for his living presence an empty abstraction."

Thomas Merton
