Quotes from the same author
To try to stop war by placing before men's eyes the terrible suffering involved will never succeed, because men are willing (in their thoughts and imaginations at least) to face any kind of suffering when motivated by noble aims like the vague and tremendous concept of freedom ...

We're living in an age of genocide. ...And we do believe that there is not only the genocide of war, and the genocide that took place with the extermination of the Jews, but the whole program....of birth control and abortion is another form of genocide....

Do not give to the poor expecting to get their gratitude so that you can feel good about yourself.

Give only if you have something you must give; give only if you are someone for whom giving is its own reward.
Dorothy Day
