William Sloane Coffin Quote

Fear destroys intimacy. It distances us from each other; or makes us cling to each other, which is the death of freedom.... Only love can create intimacy, and freedom too, for when all hearts are one, nothing else has to be one—neither clothes nor age; neither sex nor sexual preference; race nor mind-set.
