“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

“What we have to realize instead is that possession of a rational capacity, whichever capacity it is, is to be explained through acts that already manifest the capacity in question, yet in a particular manner: namely, in a manner that is mediated through and dependent on the exemplary acts of another subject.”
― Andrea Kern, Sources of Knowledge: On the Concept of a Rational Capacity for Knowledge

“Must we choose Thomas or Newman in this unhealthy epoch, struggling as it is between integralism and modernism [...] No, the choice of this hour as we stand at the central point of the spiritual crisis of our time is not Thomas or Newman, but, true to the spirit of Catholic polarity, Thomas and Newman.”
― Erich Przywara

“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.”
