“To be lonely is to feel unwanted and unloved, and therefor unloveable. Loneliness is a taste of death. No wonder some people who are desperately lonely lose themselves in mental illness or violence to forget the inner pain.”
Jean Vanier, Becoming Human

“We are not called by God to do extraordinary things, but to do ordinary things with extraordinary love. ”
Jean Vanier

“Love doesn't mean doing extraordinary or heroic things. It means knowing how to do ordinary things with tenderness.”
Jean Vanier, Community And Growth
