Edith Stein - Only the person blinded by the passion...

The clear and irrevocable world of Scripture declares what daily experience teaches from the beginning of the world: woman is destined to be wife and mother. (Edith Stein)

For as these members are formed for a particular purpose... so also is man formed by nature to acts of benevolence. View quote

In a sane society no woman would be left to struggle on her own with the huge transformation that is motherhood, when a single individual finds herself joined by an invisible umbilical cord to another person from whom she will never be separated, even by death. View quote
