My hope that the Church will emerge as a strong leader in society is just that a hope. What I described in The Catholic Moment is not a prophecy but the outline of a possibility. There are no guarantees that my hopes expressed in The Catholic Moment will ever be realised.

Richard John Neuhaus, American Writer (1936- )

Well, with prophecy you got to see what happens.

George Noory, American Journalist (1950- )

To see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion all in one.

John Ruskin, English Writer (1819-1900)

The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world... to see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion all in one.

John Ruskin, English Writer (1819-1900)

In the computer field, the moment of truth is a running program; all else is prophecy.

Herbert Simon, American Scientist (1916-2001)

A self-fulfilling prophecy is an assumption or prediction that, purely as a result of having been made, cause the expected or predicted event to occur and thus confirms its own 'accuracy.'

Paul Watzlawick, Austrian Psychologist (1921- )
