“Conviction without experience makes for harshness. ”
“[W]hat one has as a born Catholic is something given and accepted before it is experienced. I am only slowly coming to experience things that I have all along accepted. I suppose the fullest writing comes from what has been accepted and experienced both and that I have just not got that far yet all the time. Conviction without experience makes for harshness.”
“Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions”
“Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions.”
“Biking and love do not make sense without your personal experience”
“Knowledge & understanding mixed with ones convictions of 'experience' is hardly impositional". ~R. Alan Woods [2012]”
