Wendell Berry Quotes

I Thought That Some Of The Hymns Bespoke The True Religion Of The Place. The People Didn't Really Want To Be Saints Of Self-deprivation And Hatred Of The World. They Knew That The World Would Sooner Or Later Deprive Them Of All It Had Given Them, But Still They Liked It. What They Came Together For Was To Acknowledge, Just By Coming, Their Losses And Failures And Sorrows, Their Need For Comfort, Their Faith Always Needing To Be Greater, Their Wish (in Spite Of All Words And Acts To The Contrary) To Love One Another And To Forgive And Be Forgiven, Their Need For One Another's Help And Company And Divine Gifts, Their Hope (and Experience) Of Love Surpassing Death, Their Gratitude.
