Dancing Standing Still Quotes

“what is prized by human beings is an abomination in the sight of God” (Luke 16:14–15). Here we see Jesus as an astute psychologist, who recognizes and exposes things that we only now have names for: status seeking, false motives, creation of persona, cultivating a self-image, and denial.”
― Richard Rohr, Dancing Standing Still: Healing the World from a Place of Prayer; A New Edition of A Lever and a Place to Stand

“Mass consciousness, it seems, is never deep or truthful. Mass consciousness cannot hold truth because human truth is always a coincidence of opposites.”
― SJ Richard Rohr with a foreword by James Martin, Dancing Standing Still: Healing the World from a Place of Prayer; A New Edition of A Lever and a Place to Stand
