Quote of the Day

"There is a real warning that our civilization needs to hear. If our intellects can no longer close their eyes, if we no longer know how to be quiet, then we will be deprived of mystery, of its light, which is beyond darkness, of its beauty, which is beyond all beauty. Without mystery, we are reduced to the banality of earthly things."

--Cardinal Robert Sarah, The Power of Silence: Against the Dictatorship of Noise (Ignatius Press, 2017), p. 125

Quote of the Day

"In silence there is collaboration between man and God. The depth of the human soul is God's house. We will be able to let God act by keeping the most perfect interior silence. And it is possible for us to find this silence by being attentive to the voice of silence. Even in a hostile environment, we can find God in ourselves if we seek to listen to the silence that he impresses on our soul."

--Cardinal Robert Sarah, The Power of Silence: Against the Dictatorship of Noise (Ignatius Press, 2017), p. 58
