Daniel Berrigan and his mother. “It occurred to me long after my mother’s death... that such a woman might safely have been entrusted with the fate of the world.”

Without a doubt. I'd say the same abt my own mother who is 82 and works full time in a meat packing factory. She may be a saint, and she is my (and not only) role model.

My mother died 6 years ago this month at 82. A psychologist. When I introduced her to another psychologist he said, "I went into this to deal with my own neuroses." She said, "That goes without saying." I write about her in my new book, coming out next month: "A Living Gospel."

Love! Pope’s cardinal in charge of charity breaks a police seal to turn electricity back on in building where 150 families lived without light or hot water. “I intervened personally, fully aware of the possible legal consequences, because it was necessary for those families.” ✊
