Yves Congar Quotes

“Seen as a whole, the direction of theological thinking has been characterized by a transference away from attention to the being per se of supernatural realities, and toward attention to their relationship with man, with the world, and with the problems and the affirmations of all those who for us represent the others.”

Yves Congar

Situation et tâches (1967), p. 27, as cited in Theology of Liberation (1973), pp. 7-8
