Walter Kasper Quotes
To believe in love and to make it the embodiment and sum of our understanding of existence has far–reaching, indeed revolutionary consequences for our image of God, for our self–understanding and for our life praxis, for ecclesial praxis and for our conduct in the world. Love, which is proven in mercy, can and must become the foundation of a new culture for our lives, the church, and for society.
