Page viii:
"The greatest deprivation a child can endure is an underdeveloped spirit."
"Why not teach religion the way it has been handed down for centuries: with family and friends of all ages gathering and talking about their beliefs and their values; praying together, laughing together, learning together being Church together? And why not do it in someone's home, to show our kids that God lives there, too?"

Page ix:
"As Gregg Levoy wrote in Callings, 'You don't want an answer you can put in a box and set on a shelf. You want a question that will become a chariot to carry you across the breadth of your life.'"

Page xvii:
"Family is where we acquire the ability to see another's need at a give moment as greater than our own...... Aquinas calls this spirituality the 'sacrament of the present moment......If we are going to make a difference in the lives of the children in our families and in our classrooms, that difference will being with being available. Just as young children rely on us to provide for their physical needs, they are also dependent on us for the emotional and psychological support that will enable them to grow into ethical, caring adults."
