Jurgen Moltmann Men Quotations

As long as hope does not embrace and transform the thought and action of men, it remains topsy-turvy and ineffective.

The knowledge of the cross brings a conflict of interest between God who has become man and man who wishes to become God.

In the cross of Christ God is taking man dead-seriously so that he may open up for him the happy freedom of Easter. God takes upon himself the pain of negation and the God forsakenness of judgement to reconcile himself with his enemies and to give the godless fellowship with himself.

Personal, inner change without a change in circumstances and structures is an idealist illusion, as though man were only a soul and not a body as well.

Capitalism, racism and inhuman technocracy quietly develop in their own way. The causes of misery are no longer to be found in the inner attitudes of men, but have long been institutionalized.
