About This Quote
Many of us are confessional giants but ethical midgets. A confessional is a place where you can tell all your secrets to someone who will keep them secret. Confessionals are places where you can go to be heard, get help, find support, and maybe even learn something about yourself. But there is always the risk that your secrets will become public once you’ve left the confessional, and this is what makes them so dangerous.
Confessionals are powerful places, but they also have the potential to be very destructive. The best way to use confessionals is to learn from them and use their power to help others.
