Pope Francis
“Now, more than ever, what is revealed is the fallacy of making individualism the organizing principle of society. What will be our new principle?
We need a movement of people who know we need each other, who have a sense of responsibility to others and to the world. We need to proclaim that being kind, having faith, and working for the common good are great life goals that need courage and vigor; while glib superficiality and the mockery of ethics have done us no good. The modern era, which has developed equality and liberty with such determination, now needs to focus on fraternity with the same drive and tenacity to confront the challenges ahead. Fraternity will enable freedom and equality to take its rightful place in the symphony.”
Pope Francis, Let Us Dream: The Path to a Better Future

“Not only powers of intentional action, the power of intentional action is self-predicated. She who acts intentionally knows herself to have this power. The self-predication I am an intentional agent underlies and is contained in any dynamic self-predication I am doing A. Indeed, this self- predication is none other than the consciousness expressed by the word I in I am doing A. Once one recognizes this, it becomes much easier to read German Idealism.”
Sebastian Rodl

Hans Urs von Balthasar
“Every kind of integralism, open or disguised, is contrary in principle to true catholicity, which can win to itself and comprise all things only if it delivers itself up and dies like the seed to rise again.”
Hans Urs von Balthasar

“God is not simply other than our knowledge of Him. It is through God and God alone that we know God. Descartes elaborates this in this way: We know God because he left a mark of Himself in us; this mark is nothing other than our self-consciousness. Knowing God through this mark of His, we know God in every act of reason.”
Sebastian Rödl, Self-Consciousness and Objectivity: An Introduction to Absolute Idealism

Thomas Aquinas
“A capacity as such is directed to an act. Wherefore we seek to know the nature of a capacity from the act to which it is directed, and consequently the nature of a capacity is diversified as the nature of the act is diversified.”
Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae
