"Whoever debases others is debasing himself."

-- James A. Baldwin

“When you say your Rosary, the angels rejoice, the Blessed Trinity delights in it, my Son finds joy in it too, and I myself am happier than you can possibly guess. After the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, there is nothing in the Church that I love as much as the Rosary.”
“I don't write about things that I have the answers to or things that are very close to home. It just wouldn't be any adventure. It wouldn't have any vitality.”
“It's not a burning ambition for me to make sure that David Beckham earns less money.”
“Prayer is the pulse of the renewed soul; and the constancy of its beat is the test and measure of the spiritual life.”
“Seek but provision of bread and wine, fools to flatter, and clothing fine; and nothing of God shall ever be thine.”
“I love my virginity to the apocalypse.”
“There's definitely a melancholic ingredient in our concerts in the United States versus in other places. Many times people feel far away from their place of origin, from their traditions, from their people. And in a way, CafÃ© Tacvba's music brings them memories. It seems to connect them with all that they miss, because the concerts are very emotive and have lots of energy. We're very fortunate to have our music connect in that way.”
“Energy conservation is the foundation of energy independence.”
