about Missionaries Missionaries are perfect nuisances and leave every place worse than they found it. Charles Dickens Missionaries, whether of philosophy or religion, rarely make rapid way, unless their preachings fall in with the prepossessions of the multitude of shallow thinkers, or can be made to serve as a stalking-horse for the promotion of the practical aims of the still larger multitude, who do not profess to think much, but are quite certain they want a great deal. T H Huxley The Christian missionary may preach the gospel to the poor naked heathen, but the spiritual heathen who populate Europe have as yet heard nothing of Christianity. Carl Gustav Jung The pope is becoming a missionary, you will say. Yes, the pope is becoming a missionary, which means a witness, a shepherd, an apostle on the move. Pope Paul VI Missionaries are going to reform the world whether it wants to or not. Oscar Wilde The missionaries go forth to Christianize the savages - as if the savages weren't dangerous enough already. Edward Abbey We send missionaries to China so the Chinese can get to heaven, but we won't let them into our country. Pearl S Buck | |
