Nuestra época se define a veces como la era del vacío, del desencanto, de la pérdida de valores. Se hace cada día más urgente que recuperemos el deseo de grandeza, la confianza...

The lessons in this book are those Schmidt did not and probably could not have learned in school. They aren't so much facts and concepts as states of mind and acts of will.

It is when a relationship is strained, a project botched, or an idea scorned that creative...

The desert, with its great emptiness and silence, has long been a symbol of solitude. In our spiritual lives, we sometimes seek such isolation as a means of abandoning ourselves completely to God. At other times, solitude comes upon us uninvited and unwelcome, as we find ourselves totally alone and desolate. In facing the silence and the vast expanses of loneliness, we test our courage, deepen our faith, and hear the voice of God anew.
