A Word for Wednesday

"In racing, they say that your car goes where your eyes go.
The driver who cannot tear his eyes away from the wall as he spins out of control will meet that wall;
 the driver who looks down the track as he feels his tires break free will regain control of his vehicle.
 Your car goes were your eyes go."

"This is a rule of racing: No race has ever been won in the first corner; many have been lost there."

A Word for Wednesday

"If all experienced God in the same way and returned Him an identical worship,
the song of the Church triumphant would have no symphony,
it would be like an orchestra in which all the instruments played the same note.
Aristotle has told us that a city is a unity of unlikes,
and St Paul that a body is a unity of different members.
Heaven is a city, and a Body, because the blessed remain eternally different:
a society, because each has something to tell the others—fresh and ever fresh news of the 'My God' whom each finds in Him whom all praise as 'Our God'."
