¨Wealth takes away the sharp edges of our moral sensitivities and allows a comfortable confusion about sin and virtue. The difference between rich and poor is not that the rich sin more than the poor, but that the rich find it easier to call sin a virtue...That apathy leads to the atrophy of the moral sense.¨ Henri Nouwen, Gracias, p. 159-160
¨Have daylight mercy on my midnight soul.¨ Frederick Buechner, Godric, p. 140
