5 " very intelligent Jesuit told this joke: There was a person who came running asking for help. Who was pursuing him? Was it an assassin? A thief? No … a mediocre person with power. It is true, how sad for the people that are under a mediocre leader, who thinks too highly of himself. When a mediocre person thinks too highly of himself and gets just a little power, I am sorry for those that are under him. My father always said to me: “Greet people when you are going up because you are going to run into them when you come down. Do not think too highly of yourself. "

7 " Religion will always have a future because it is an expression of the profound search for the meaning of life and a consequence of introspection and encounters with Him. As long as life continues to be a mystery and man wonders who created the natural order—while those questions, which I believe will be eternal, persist— the concept of religion will endure as a manifestation of the urgent calling to understand who we are.
