17. World Spirituality
“We need to find God, and he cannot be
found in noise and restlessness. God is the
friend of silence.
See how nature - trees, flowers, grass-
grows in silence; see the stars, the moon
and the sun, how they move in silence... We
need silence to be able to touch souls ”
- Mother Theresa

“Faith is to believe what we
do not see; the reward of
this faith is to see what we
believe ”
