This quote is by Thomas Merton. Mr. Merton became a monk at the Abbey of Gethsemani at Trappist, Kentucky, on December 10, 1941. It was one day after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

His writings covered a range of controversial issues, involving social problems and Christian responsibility: race relations, violence, nuclear war, and economic injustice.

Quote

“Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody’s business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.”  

Thomas Merton
