• I came, then, to serve my Church first of all, and the whole world, that is, every person I find along my way. I serve and I will give of myself unto death so that there will be no distance between speaking and doing, so that the people will never again say, 'there is a chasm between us and the leaders' and word spread that the Church is far from her people. I know very well that our people are good and that they want from us today to go to them, to seek them out wherever they are, to search out the lost and return them joyfully to the fold. They hunger and thirst for the Word of God.

  Metropolitan Ephraim Kyriakos

• A man is an island, but the water is deep
  And the shore on the other side is ragged and steep
  To look for perfection is a lonely old ride
  It takes a whole lot of courage and a whole lot of pride
  When you look for independence and you get what you want
  How come you look back, thinking what have I done?
  But time and again, it dawns on me
  It's the price we pay for liberty
  I should have know, we all need a place to call home

  Joey Tempest

  Song, Lonely, Home

• Non-Christians seem to think that the Incarnation implies some particular merit or excellence in humanity. But of course it implies just the reverse: a particular demerit and depravity. No creature that deserved Redemption would need to be redeemed. They that are whole need not the physician. Christ died for men precisely because men are not worth dying for; to make them worth it.
