William Sloane Coffin Jr.
From the Washington Post article about his passing:
“Every minister is given two roles: the priestly and the prophetic,” he said. “The prophetic role is the disturber of the peace, to bring the minister himself, the congregation and entire social order under some judgment. If one plays a prophetic role, it’s going to mitigate against his priestly role. There are going to be those who will hate him.”



I am trying to authenticate a quotation by Rev. Coffin that goes “the world is too dangerous for anything but truth and too small for anything but love”. Does anyone know the source of this quote? Thanks very much!
