Voices Quotes
-
The world expects of Christians that they will raise their voices so loudly and clearly and so formulate their protest that not even the simplest man can have the slightest doubt about what they are saying.

We stand in need of folk who have determined to speak directly and unmistakably and come what may, to stand by what they have said.

We simply cannot help but respond to these indicators of safety or danger.

But the connection between us was in the air, growing stronger with each stroke of his brush and with every cadenza of my piano performance as we struggled to find our unique voices.
