“The word 'religion' is only a label. What lies behind that, the most important thing of all, is the word 'faith'.

“This is a day of little faith - of few convictions - a day when men seem to have no great causes and no great passions. So in frustration, in disappointment, they are inclined to say, 'You can't change human nature.' It is true that we cannot change human nature. But God can.”
