Charles JournetWhen we are broken and the reasons for this state of affairs do not even appear to us, we must take our heart, in each of its poor, little pieces, to the God of Love. It is not necessary to say anything when we cannot say anything. We just can go. And when we begin to be able to speak a few words again, it is the Pater [Our Father]; this will illumine all our nights.
Charles Cardinal Journet (1891–1975)
