“If there are people who feel that God wants them to change the structures of society, that is something between them and their God. We must serve him in whatever way we are called. I am called to help the individual; to love each poor person. Not to deal with institutions. I am in no position to judge.”
—Mother Teresa (b. 1910)
“Striking his former happiness against the reef of justice he has perished unwept for and unseen.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
