“Authentic faith leads us to treat others with unconditional seriousness and to a loving reverence for the mystery of the human personality. Authentic Christianity should lead to maturity, personality, and reality. It should fashion whole men and women living lives of love and communion.

Technology must be guided and driven by ethics if it is to do more than provide new toys for the rich.”
“Always wear cute pyjamas to bed, you'll never know who u will meet in your dreams.”

“You may be right in believing that if you study hard, one day you might become fluent in English.

Youâ€™ll always be expected to know Chinese, and if you donâ€™t, Iâ€™m afraid they will not respect you as much.”
