Richard Rohr Quotes

You know after any truly initiating experience that you are part of a much bigger whole. Life is not about you henceforward, but you are about life.

Richard Rohr

I hope we can inaugurate a new humility in our use of religious language, which for me is the very proof that it is authentic.

Richard Rohr

Knowing without loving is frankly dangerous for the soul and for society. You'll critique most everything you encounter and even have the hubris to call this mode of reflexive cynicism "thinking" (whereas it's really your ego's narcissistic reaction to the moment). You'll position things to quickly as inferior or superior, "with me" or "against me," and most of the time you'll be wrong.
