J.D. Salinger Quotes

When You Don't See Jesus For Exactly What He Was, You Miss The Whole Point Of The Jesus Prayer. If You Don't Understand Jesus, You Can't Understand His Prayer - You Don't Get The Prayer At All, You Just Get Some Kind Of Organized Cant ... If God Had Wanted Somebody With St. Francis's Consistently Winning Personality For The Job Of The New Testament, He'd've Picked Him, You Can Be Sure. As It Was, He Picked The Best, The Smartest, The Most Loving, The Least Sentimental, The Most Unimitative Master He Could Possibly Have Picked. And When You Miss Seeing That, I Swear To You, You're Missing The Whole Point Of The Jesus Prayer. The Jesus Prayer Has One Aim, And One Aim Only. To Endow The Person Who Says It With Christ-Consciousness.
