The purpose of life is to listen - to yourself, to your neighbor, to your world and to God and, when the time comes, to respond in as helpful a way as you can find... from within and without.
"Because man and woman are the complement of one another,
we need woman"s thought in national affairs to make
a safe and stable government."
-Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902)
"God is the friend of silence.
See how nature-trees, flowers, grass-grows in silence;
see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls."
-Mother Teresa (1910-1997)
