• Si todo el pensamiento que se ha gastado en la construcción de máquinas de agonía y muerte -los modos de agresión y defensa, el levantamiento de ejércitos y la adquisición de esas artes de tiranía y falsedad sin las cuales las multitudes mezcladas no podrían ser dirigidas ni gobernadas- se hubiera empleado para promover el verdadero bienestar y extender el verdadero imperio del hombre, ¡cuán diferente habría sido la situación actual de la sociedad humana!

• I think the thing that made this stand out the most was just the fact that there's a lot more character to these characters. We see their back stories and we see their present situations, and that was a lot more interesting than just the regular procedural with four heads standing around a body, spelling it out for you. It's a lot more of a roller coaster ride.

• Pain is a holy angel who shows us treasures that would otherwise remain forever hidden; through him men and women have become greater than through all the joys of the world. It must be so and I tell myself this in my present situation over and over again. The pain of suffering and of longing, which can often be felt even physically, must be there, and we cannot and need not talk it away. But it needs to be overcome every time, and thus there is an even holier angel than the one of pain; that is, the one of joy in God.

  Dietrich Bonhoeffer

It is the carry-over in the decision which helps develop the situation in the way we wish it to be developed. The ablest administrators do not merely draw logical conclusions from the array of facts of the past which their expert assistants bring to them; they have a vision of the future.

• It is not enough for the Church to be engaged with the State in healing social ills, though this is important at times. But when the world can turn around and see a group of God's people exhibiting substantial healing in the area of human relationships in their present life, then the world will take notice. Each group of Christians is, as it were, a pilot plant, showing that something can be done in the present situation, if only we begin in the right way.
