“I really only love God as much as I love
the person I love the least.”
--Servant of God Dorothy Day
A founder of the Catholic Workers Movement, unwed mother and convert to Catholicism, Dorothy Day died thirty years ago today. Ten years ago, her cause for sainthood was opened, and with it granting her the title "Servant of God".
Here you may find a good background on a woman who lived by both a traditional piety and nontraditional lifestyle. The linked article says, "Her spirituality was very much focused on the effort to practice forgiveness, charity and patience with those closest at hand."
