Instead of hating the people you think are war-makers, hate the appetites and disorder in your own soul, which are the causes of war. If you love peace, then hate injustice, hate tyranny, hate greed - but hate these things in yourself, not in another.
Thomas Merton (via azspot)
Can I get a secular Amen? Yes you can. Amen, brother! And while I’m at it I’d like to take back the word witness, for the defense. The prosecution has taken witness and co-mingled it until it’s no longer serves.
