Famous quotes by Rowan Williams:

"the leading theologian in our communion."

"a huge fallacy to suppose that one community is somehow more intrinsically prone to violence or outrage than any other."

"We are still on that path, and irrevocably committed to it."

"I am certainly not ascribing to the defenders of euthanasia or assisted dying any motive but the desire to spare people unnecessary suffering,"

"increased crime and disorder, public nuisance and decreased public safety at a place which is dear to people from various Christian traditions."

"is someone who has always combined a passion for sharing the Gospel with a keen sense of the problems and challenges of our society, particularly where racism is concerned."

"I am pleased that Prince Charles and Mrs Camilla Parker Bowles have decided to take this important step."

"We have to learn to be human along-side all sorts of others, the ones whose company we don't greatly like."

"The question, 'How can you believe in a God who permits suffering on this scale?' is therefore very much around at the moment, and it would be surprising if it weren't - indeed it would be wrong if it weren't."

"It would be a real failure if agreeing that it[abortion] was not an electoral issue provided an alibi for taking it seriously as a public issue."

"I value unity because I believe we learn truth from each other in this process."

"I think there is a great deal of interest still in the Christian faith."

"Quite a lot of our contemporary culture is actually shot through with a resentment of limits and the passage of time, anger at what we can't do, fear or even disgust at growing old."

"My visit this autumn is an opportunity to continue that rich tradition of visits between Canterbury and Rome."

"In spite of the haze of speculation, it is still something of a shock to find myself here, coming to terms with an enormous trust placed in my hands and with the inevitable sense of inadequacy that goes with that."

"A healthy human environment is one in which we try to make sense of our limits, of the accidents that can always befall us and the passage of time which inexorably changes us."

"At the end of the Middle Ages, nobody would ever have expected the monasteries to vanish from the scene within a generation - yet they did. Change does happen."

"Let's cut to the chase, the sharia controversy. I don't think I, or my colleagues, predicted just how enormous the reaction would be. I failed to find the right words. I succeeded in confusing people. I've made mistakes - that's probably one of them."

"Whether something is old-fashioned or not doesn't resolve the question of whether it's true or not. I can see the temptation of simply thinking, 'Well, there's a cultural mainstream which flows neatly in one direction. You just align with it'. And that really won't do."
