Nothing makes us so lonely as our secrets.

Paul Tournier (1848-1986) Swiss physician, writer, philosopher
Secrets (1963)

Christianity is not one ideology over against other ideologies. It is a life inspired by the Holy Spirit. Its victories are nothing but victories over itself, not over others. It propagates itself through humility and self-examination, not through triumphs.

Paul Tournier (1848-1986) Swiss physician, writer, philosopher
The Whole Person in a Broken World (1964)

Let us not seek to bring religion to others, but let us endeavor to live it ourselves.

Paul Tournier (1848-1986) Swiss physician, writer, philosopher
“Resources in Medical Training and Practice,” lecture (30 Mar 1965)
