Quotes From "Poverty Of Spirit" By Johann Baptist Metz

We must learn to accept ourselves in the painful experiment of living. We must embrace the spiritual adventure of becoming human, moving through the many stages that lie between birth and death. Johann Baptist Metz

[N]one of us drinks the chalice of our existence to the last drop. None of us is fully obedient. Each of us falls short of the human nature entrusted to us. Johann Baptist Metz
