Sacred/listening

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or listening:

    God of justice, God of mercy,
    Make us merciful and just!
    Help us see all your creation
    As from you a sacred trust.
    And when people cry in anguish
    For their own or others’ pain,
    Show us ways to make a difference
    O dear God, make us humane!
    Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)

    The situation of our youth is not mysterious. Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them. They must, they have no other models.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)
