Famous quotes by Henri Nouwen (4)
"Much violence is based on the illusion that life is a property to be defended and not to be shared"

"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand"
