Daniel Berrigan

"The good is to be done because it is good, not because it goes somewhere.  I believe if it is done in that spirit it will go somewhere, but I don't know where.  I don't think the Bible grants us to know where goodness goes, what direction, what force.  I have never been seriously interested in the outcome.  I was interested in trying to do it humanly and carefully and nonviolently and let it go."

~ Quoted in David Dark, The Sacredness of Questioning Everything (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2009), 203.
