“A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love”
St Basil the Great
“In different passages of Sacred Scripture (especially in the Old Testament), we find comparisons that attribute to God ”masculine” or ”feminine” qualities. We find in these passages an indirect confirmation of the truth that both man and woman were created in the image of God. If there is a likeness between Creator and creatures, it is understandable that the Bible would refer to God using expressions that attribute to him both ”masculine” and ”feminine” qualities.”
St John Paul II, Pope
“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“How could I wear a crown of gold when my Lord wears a crown of thorns and he wears it for me?”
