We are the nation the most powerful, the most armed and we are supplying arms and money to the rest of the world where we are not ourselves fighting. We are eating while there is famine in the world.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

I have long since come to believe that people never mean half of what they say, and that it is best to disregard their talk and judge only their actions.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Knitting is very conducive to thought. It is nice to knit a while, put down the needles, write a while, then take up the sock again.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Our faith is stronger than de...

Our faith is stronger than death, our philosophy is firmer than flesh, and the spread of the Kingdom of God upon the earth is more sublime and more compelling.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

As for ourselves, yes, we mus...

As for ourselves, yes, we must be meek, bear injustice, malice, rash judgment. We must turn the other cheek, give up our cloak, go a second mile.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

We believe in loving our brot...

We believe in loving our brothers regardless of race, color or creed and we believe in showing this love by working for better conditions immediately and the ultimate owning by the workers of their means of production.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

I believe that we must reach ...

I believe that we must reach our brother, never toning down our fundamental oppositions, but meeting him when he asks to be met, with a reason for the faith that is in us, as well as with a loving sympathy for them as brothers.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

It is easier to have faith that God will support each House of Hospitality and Farming Commune and supply our needs in the way of food and money to pay bills, than it is to keep a strong, hearty, living faith in each individual around us - to see Christ in him.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Certainly we disagree with the Communist Party, as we disagree with other political parties who are trying to maintain the American way of life.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Food for the body is not enou...

Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the soul.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

First of all, let it be remem...

First of all, let it be remembered that I speak as an ex-Communist and one who has not testified before Congressional Committees, nor written works on the Communist conspiracy.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Poverty is a strange and elus...

Poverty is a strange and elusive thing. ... I condemn poverty and I advocate it; poverty is simple and complex at once; it is a social phenomenon and a personal matter. Poverty is an elusive thing, and a paradoxical one. We need always to be thinking and writing about it, for if we are not among its victims its reality fades from us. We must talk about poverty because people insulated by their own comfort lose sight of it.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

True love is delicate and kin...

True love is delicate and kind, full of gentle perception and understanding, full of beauty and grace, full of joy unutterable. There should be some flavor of this in all our love for others. We are all one. We are one flesh in the Mystical Body as man and woman are said to be one flesh in marriage. With such a love one would see all things new; we would begin to see people as they really are, as God sees them.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

We need to change the system....

We need to change the system. We need to overthrow, not the government, as the authorities are always accusing the Communists 'of conspiring to teach [us] to do,' but this rotten, decadent, putrid industrial capitalist system which breeds such suffering in the whited sepulcher of New York.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

We are all called to be saint...

We are all called to be saints, St. Paul says, and we might as well get over our bourgeois fear of the name. We might also get used to recognizing the fact that there is some of the saint in all of us.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Don't worry about being effective. Just concentrate on being faithful to the truth.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

Dear God, please enlarge our ...

Dear God, please enlarge our hearts to love each other, to love our neighbor, to love our enemy as well as our friend.

Don't call me a saint; I don't want to be dismissed so easily.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

There is plenty to do, for each one of us, working on our own hearts, changing our own attitudes, in our own neighborhoods.

Dorothy Day 186 quotes

If you are rushed for time, s...

If you are rushed for time, sow time and you will reap time. Go to church and spend a quiet hour in prayer. You will have more time than ever and your work will get done. Sow time with the poor. Sit and listen to them, give them your time lavishly. You will reap time a hundredfold.
