"No matter what our aim may be, no matter how spiritual, no matter how intent we think we are upon the glory of God and His kingdom, greed and passion enter into our work and turn it into agitation as soon as our intention ceases to be pure. And who can swear that his intentions are pure, even down to the subconscious depths of his will, where ancient selfish motives move comfortably like forgotten sea monsters in waters where they are never seen." - T. Merton
~~ Kill my sea monsters Lord! For you alone know the depths of my soul.
