Fresh speech

“A very grave responsibility rests with us Christians. Our times call for speech that is charged with freshness, youthful vigour, creative energy—and we have not yet found it; the usual exhortation to humility rings false in this atmosphere of social wrongs.”

—Nicholas Berdyaev, Christianity and the Class War (London: Sheed & Ward, 1933), p. 118.
