Here, in one of his most popular of his more than thirty books, Thomas Merton provides further meditations on the spiritual life in sixteen thoughtful essays, beginning with his classic treatise "Love Can Be Kept Only by Being Given Away." This sequel to Seeds of Contemplation provides fresh insight into Merton's favorite topics of silence and solitude, while also underscoring the importance of community and the deep connectedness to others that is the inevitable basis of the spiritual life—whether one lives in solitude or in the midst of a crowd.

Spiritual matters are inconducive of understanding through the means of written words alone, much less their essence to be grasped merely by reading eyes. (

Per quanto l'uomo e il suo mondo possano sembrare in rovina, per quanto la disperazione umana possa diventare terribile, finché continua ad essere un uomo, la sua stessa umanità seguita a dirgli che la sua vita ha un significato.
