The love of the truth requires a vigilance for the truth. And that is
daily. And in the last days, I would say hourly and moment by moment.

That's expensive, but there's no cheap way. Because if we lose that
sense, we've lost everything. We're hollow, we're gongs and And we have
no effect on the society about us.

What a melancholy, pathetic end for the church that has turned in on
itself, and whose last existence is mere succession of services, who
have not even impressed our own children with the seriousness of what we
are about, let alone the world.
