Love is Stronger than death


Paul Tillich in a sermon "Love is Stronger than death" says:

       "Love is stronger.  It creates something out of the destruction caused by death.  It bears everything and overcomes everything.  It is at work where the power of death is strongest, in war and persecution and homelessness and hunger and physical death itself. It is omnipresent and here and there, in the smallest and most hidden ways as in the greatest and most visible ones.  It rescues life from death.  It rescues each of us, for love is stronger than death." 
Quote from Paul Tillich, The New Being Scribner, 1955, p.174
