"Love exists only where there is freedom. To be forced to love is hell;
to be free in love is heaven. Where love is, there is freedom. Since
the child is the flower of love, it is earth's sacrament of freedom.
As the cradles come back into the world, freedom will come back. This
freedom will consist not in throwing off restraint, which is license,
but in the increase of new centers of freedom. In each child God
whispers a new secret to the world; adds a new dimension of immortality
to creation; and makes the clinging hearts of husband and wife feel a
little freer, as they look into that strange and mutual hope which has
come to them from God."
