lumina and new lumina
Lumina and New LuminaA new translation is available of the small but valuable work, Lumina und Neue Lumina. Published by Ignatius Press, this book, Lumina and New Lumina, which is a collection of aphorisms, really contemplative 'insights', should be graciously welcome in the English-speaking world.
"To get or to understand people always means: to look at them from God's angle, from the point of view communicated through Him. It is not a science but a pure grace."
"Christian hope is a vessel in which faith lives; love carries it."
"Only when you are familiar with silence have you learned to speak; what you have to say can ripen only in silence."
Dr. Matthew Lewis Sutton
