me
the energy to change the world.’ "
“As
I approached middle age and realised that
half my life was gone without my
changing
a single soul, I changed my prayer
to: ‘Lord, give me the grace to change
all those who come in contact with
me. Just my family and friends,
and
I shall be content.’ ”
“Now
that I am an old man and my days are
numbered, my one prayer is: ‘Lord,
give
me the grace to change myself.’ If
I had prayed for this right from
the
start I should not have wasted my
life.”
