In true love the smallest distance is too great, and the greatest distance can be bridged  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Your heart is greater than your wounds  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) I had a deep experience of God’s love for me  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Life is not entertainment. Life is not distraction  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) I am beginning now to see how radically the character of my spiritual journey will change when I no longer think of God as hiding out and making it as difficult as possible for me to find him, but instead as the one who is looking for me while I am doing the hiding  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Forgiveness changes the way we remember  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Solitude is the furnace of transformation  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Forgiveness indeed heals memories  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Do not hesitate to love and to love deeply  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Life is a gift, not to possess, but to share  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Hiddenness is the place of purification. In hiddenness we find our true selves  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Community is where humility and glory touch  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Our life is full of brokenness - broken relationships, broken promises, broken expectations. How can we live with that brokenness without becoming bitter and resentful except by returning again and again to God’s faithful presence in our lives  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Hope is willing to leave unanswered questions unanswered and unknown futures unknown. Hope makes you see God’s guiding hand not only in the gentle and pleasant moments but also in the shadows of disappointment and darkness  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Nuclear man is the man who realizes that his creative powers hold the potential for self-destruction. He sees that in this nuclear age vast new industrial complexes enable man to produce in one hour that which he labored over for years in the past, but he also realizes that these same industries have disturbed the ecological balance and, through air and noise pollution, have contaminated his own milieu  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) The best of community does give one a deep sense of belonging and well-being; and in that sense community takes away loneliness.  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Forgiveness changes the way we remember.

Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place. It is not to bring men and women over to our side, but to offer freedom not disturbed by dividing lines  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Forgiveness is the name of love practiced among people who love poorly. The hard truth is that all people love poorly. We need to forgive and be forgiven every day, every hour increasingly. That is the great work of love among the fellowship of the weak that is the human family  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) A life without a lonely place, that is, without a quiet center, becomes destructive  (Henri Nouwen Quotes) Who can take away suffering without entering it?  (Henri Nouwen Quotes)
