Homilies - 2009 |
“It is better to limp along the way than stride along off the way. For a man who limps along the way, even if he only makes slow progress, comes to the end of the way; but the one who is off the way, the more quickly he runs, the further away is he from his goal.” (Thomas Aquinas) |
