Thomas Merton Quotes

You Have Got Me Walking Up And Down All Day Under Those Trees, Saying To Me Over And Over Again, "Solitude, Solitude." And You Have Turned Around And Thrown The World In My Lap. You Have Told Me, "Leave All Things And Follow Me," And Then You Have Tied Half Of New York To My Foot Like A Ball And Chain. You Have Got Me Kneeling Behind That Pillar With My Mind Making A Noise Like A Bank. Is That Contemplation?
