        -  "The world treasures power, God treasures goodness. Authority in the biblical sense is not a power word but a goodness word.  It means right, not might."

        - " The Church no more wishes mankind to return to a Victorian form of the husband-wife, parent-child, or master-servant relationship than she wishes us to return to a medieval, monarchy ideal of statehood."
