"I am not a pessimist; I do not believe in dead ends nor do I surrender to despair. Kierkegaard once said: 'To move towards the light requires a leap into the dark.' I am sure that after the dark night, a new day will dawn on us with everlasting light. We should never surrender to apathy. Apathetic men accomplish nothing. As someone once said, men who believe in nothing, change nothing and renew nothing." - Metropolitan Phillip (Saliba), reposed March 19, 2014
