Thomas Merton hermitage interior2 (Abbey of Gethsemani) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
“Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone. We find it with another.”
“Love seeks one thing only: the good of the one loved. It leaves all the other secondary effects to take care of themselves. Love therefore, is its own reward.”
“We must make the choices that enable us to fulfill the deepest capacities of our real selves.”
