"Our age not only does not have a very sharp eye for the almost imperceptible intrusions of grace, it no longer has much feeling for the nature of the violences which precede and follow them."

Philosophy

"From 15 to 18 is an age at which one is very sensitive to the sins of others, as I know from recollections of myself. At that age you don't look for what is hidden. It is a sign of maturity not to be scandalized and to try to find explanations in charity."

Growth

"If you want to get anywhere in religion, you got to keep it sweet."

Spiritual

"Fiction is about everything human and we are made out of dust, and if you scorn getting yourself dusty, then you shouldn't try to write fiction. It's not a grand enough job for you."

Literature

"He had a look of composed dissatisfaction, as if he understood life thoroughly."

Wisdom

"Most of us have learned to be dispassionate about evil, to look it in the face and find, as often as not, our own grinning reflections with which we do not argue, but good is another matter. Few have stared at that long enough to accept that its face too is grotesque, that in us the good is something under construction. The modes of evil usually receive worthy expression. The modes of good have to be satisfied with a cliche or a smoothing down that will soften their real look."

Morality

"He has the mistaken notion that a concern with grace is a concern with exalted human behavior, that it is a pretentious concern. It is, however, simply a concern with the human reaction to that which, instant by instant, gives life to the soul. It is a concern with a realization that breeds charity and with the charity that breeds action. Often the nature of grace can be made plain only by describing its absence."

Spiritual

"I am not afraid that the book will be controversial, I'm afraid it will not be controversial."

Will

"My intellect is so limited, Lord, that I can only trust in You to preserve me as I should be."

Spiritual

"And if the student finds that this is not to his taste well that is regrettable. Most regrettable. His taste should not be consulted it is being formed."
