William Sloane Coffin

William Sloane Coffin invites us to remember we are living in a world that is too dangerous for anything but truth and too small for anything but love. This is an especially important invitation at a time when we have a President who chooses to constantly lie and to spread fear.

"He had a lover's quarrel with the world," is a quote I attribute to Robert Frost. Along those same lines is this quote from William Sloane Coffin: "There are three kinds of patriots, two bad, one good. The Bad ones are uncritical lovers and the loveless critics. Good patriots carry on a lover's quarrel with their country, a reflection of God's lover's quarrel with all the world."
