"Personally, I would always choose the path of suffering."
"You should never consider yourself to be so powerful that you act or even think about acting without consulting a wise and cautious guide whose primary purpose is to serve God."
"It is lov'es nature to reveal itself through service in a thousand ways."
"Let's eagerly endure everything that comes to us."

The Seven Storey Mountain
by Thomas Merton
"The truth is, in any kind of a religious Order there is not only the possibility but even in some sense the obligation of leading, at least to some extent, the highest of all lives - contemplation, and the sharing of it's fruits with others."
"So Brother Matthew locked the gate behind me and I was enclosed in the four walls of my new freedom."
