MEMORIES OF MERTON

























I am the utter poverty of God. I am his emptiness, littleness, nothingness, lostness. When this is understood, my life in his freedom, the self-emptying God of me is the fullness of grace. Love for all, hatred of none, is the fruit and manifestation of love of God.

Thomas Merton (31 January 1915 – 10 December 1968, Bangkok, Thailand)
