    “Exporting Church employees to Latin America masks a universal and unconscious fear of a new Church. North and South American authorities, differently motivated but equally fearful, become accomplices in maintaining a clerical and irrelevant Church. Sacralizing employees and property, this Church becomes progressively more blind to the possibilities of sacralizing person and community.”
    —Ivan Illich (b. 1926)

    “For I could not read or speak and on the long nights I could not turn the moon off or count the lights of cars across the ceiling.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
