Until we meet a benevolent God and a benevolent universe, until we realize that the foundation of all is love, we will not be at home in this world.

Richard Rohr

Love is the greatest force in the universe. It is the heartbeat of the moral cosmos. He who loves is a participant in the being of God.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 

Science can purify religion from error and superstition; religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.  Each can draw the other into a wider world, a world in which both can flourish.

John Paul ll

Every time we are drawn to look up into the night sky and reflect on the awesome beauty of the universe, we are actually the universe reflecting on itself.  And this changes everything.
