To be feminist doesn't mean simply to do nothing, to reduce yourself to total impotence under the pretext of refusing masculine values.

The fulfilment that is being in love with God is not the product of our knowledge and choice. It is God's gift. Like all being in love, as distinct from particular acts of loving, it is a first principle.

Solely in the world of languages is the amateur of value. Well-intentioned sentences full of mistakes can still build bridges between people.
