“I thought that the world was a vast system of signs, a conversation between giant beings.

It is not a bending toward the underprivileged from a privileged position; it is not a reaching out from on high to those who are less fortunate below; it is not a gesture of sympathy or pity for those who fail to make it in the upward pull. On the contrary, compassion means going directly to those people and places where suffering is most acute and building a home there.”
“Who needs make-believe monsters when there are so many real ones.”
