"Crisis" --Bishop Murphy
"For some the word 'crisis' is charged with negative undercurrent. Yet, the definition of the word ... envisions 'crisis' as a 'turning point, a stage in a sequence of events at which the trend of all future events, especially for better or worse, is determined.'
"The word 'crisis' can be used much more positively where we are challenged to grab hold of the present moment, to recognize the issues involved, and to make the present moment a turning point. From this perspective, a 'crisis' becomes a 'graced moment, a time of decision.' "
--Cavanaugh
