Quotes

  • Most Christians desire nonviolence, yes; but they are not talking about a nonviolent struggle for justice. They mean simply the absence of conflict.
  • The church says to the lion and the lamb, "Here, let me negotiate a truce," to which the lion replies, "Fine, after I finish my lunch."
  • Besides an unmasking of the oppressors, there must also be a healing of the servile will in their victims.
  • The victory of faith over the Powers lies, not in immunity to their wrath, but in emancipation from their delusions.
