Here are some of my favorite quotes:
"You gorgeously array your walls, but do not clothe your fellow human being." (p.47) -- So applicable today, with all the home decor stores, HGTV, and Pinterest telling us we need to have beautiful homes!
"For if what you say is true, that you have kept from your youth the commandment of love and have given to everyone the same as to yourself, then how did you come by this abundance of wealth?" (p.43) -- Ouch!
"Like a mighty river that is divided into many streams in order to irrigate the fertile soil, so also are those who give their wealth to be divided up and distributed in the houses of the poverty-stricken. Wells become more productive if they are drained completely, while they silt up if they are left standing. Thus wealth left idle is of no use to anyone, but put to use and exchanged it becomes fruitful and beneficial for the public." (p. 66) -- Love this insight!
And one more:
"If you want storehouses, you have them in the stomachs of the poor. Lay up for yourself treasure in heaven." (p. 68)… (mehr)
