*The foundation of all mental illness is the unwillingness to experience legitimate suffering.

  -Carl Jung

*Slavery was an insult to dignity because it arguably obliberated persons: it erased them from the space of value.  This is not only wrong, but vile.  Only once we being to internalize the meaning of this have we made a start.

  -Remy Debes

*Art is a lie whose secret ingredient is truth.

  -Ian Leslie

*Reflections of Jean Sulivan:

  -The Gospel enlightens our human condition.  It drags the individual from the clan, from the family, from one's childhood.  It makes everyone solitary, a wanderer, a marginal being.  It is up to each of us to recreate communion, but now with the awareness of individual freedom.  The is always a desert to cross.

  -...when God is repressed, violence is less apt to be offset by love.  A police regime follows.

  -Of itself, faith is creative and places the individual at a distance from social conformity and ideology.  It can be seen once more as what it really is - a force for liberation, not simply rejecting ideologies but pointing out their vice.

  -Christianity is above all a form of human conduct that has been activated by a prophetic utopia in the midst of civil societies.
