Thomas Merton Quotes

“To some, Merton’s humble posture of learning from non-Christians meant that he was demeaning Catholicism, which claims to have the fullness of the truth, but Merton did not see it this way. Even the Church does not maintain that it has the fullness of the truth in the sense that it knows the fullness of the truth now; instead, it holds that the fullness of truth is implicitly present in the deposit of revelation given to it by Jesus Christ.”
