Gustavo Gutiérrez słynne cytaty

„W dużej mierze dzięki wpływowi marksizmu teologiczna myśl, szukając swych własnych źródeł, zaczęła interesować się tym, jakie znaczenie ma kształtowanie tego świata i działanie człowieka w historii. (…) W ten sposób rozumiana teologia spełnia niezbędną i trwałą rolę w uwalnianiu od wszelkiego rodzaju religijnej alienacji, która jest często pogłębiona przez samą instytucję kościelną, kiedy ta utrudnia właściwe spojrzenie na Słowo Boże.”

„Tylko radykalne zerwanie ze status quo, to jest głęboka przemiana systemu opartego na własności prywatnej, dojście do władzy klasy wyzyskiwanej oraz rewolucja społeczna, która zniosłaby istniejące zależności, może doprowadzić do zmiany i do stworzenia nowego społeczeństwa, społeczeństwa socjalistycznego – albo przynajmniej umożliwić istnienie takiego społeczeństwa.”

„Konstytucja Gaudium et spes pominęła problematykę dotyczącą relacji między doczesnym postępem a nadprzyrodzonym odkupieniem. Zadowoliła się stwierdzeniami natury ogólnej (…), nie odważając się na radykalny krytycyzm wobec niesprawiedliwego systemu, na którym ufundowane jest życie społeczne. Innymi słowy, zręcznie pominięto konfliktogenne aspekty życia politycznego.”

Conclusion, p. 174

“About the twelfth century the possibility of sharing contemplation by means of preaching and other forms of apostolic activity began to be considered. This point of view was exemplified in the mixed life (contemplative and active) of the mendicant orders and was expressed in the formula: contemplata aliis tradere”

"to transmit to others the fruits of contemplation"
Źródło: A Theology of Liberation (1971), p. 7

“Contemporary man has begun to lose his naiveté as … the deep causes of the situation in which he finds himself are becoming clearer. He realizes that to attack these deep causes is the indispensable prerequisite for radical change. And so he has gradually abandoned a simple reformist attitude regarding the existing social order, for, by its very shallowness this reformism perpetuates the existing system.”

“By keeping historical events in their proper perspective, theology helps safeguard society and the Church from regarding as permanent what is only temporary. Critical reflection thus always plays the inverse role of an ideology which rationalizes and justifies a given social and ecclesial order.”

“Although until recently the Church was closely linked to the established order, it is beginning to take a different attitude regarding the exploitation, oppression, and alienation which prevails in Latin America. This has caused concern among the beneficiaries and defenders of capitalist society, who no longer can depend on what used to be - whether consciously or unconsciously - one of their mainstays.”

“The liberation of our continent means more than overcoming economic, social, and political dependence. It means, in a deeper sense, to see the becoming of mankind as a process of the emancipation of man in history. It is to see man in search of a qualitatively different society in which he will be free from all servitude, in which he will be the artisan of his own destiny.”

“A theology which has as its points of reference only "truths" which have been established once and for all—and not the Truth which is also the Way—can only be static and, in the long run, sterile.”

“People are also more keenly and painfully aware that a large part of the Church is in one way or another linked to those who wield economic and political power in today's world…. Under these circumstances, can it honestly be said that the Church does not interfere in "the temporal sphere"? Is the Church fulfilling a purely religious role when by its silence or friendly relationships it lends legitimacy to a dictatorial and oppressive government?”
