“We ourselves are brought into conversation with God by the word of God. The God who speaks in the Bible teaches us how to speak with Him ourselves. Particularly in the book of Psalms, He gives us the words with which we can address Him, with which we can bring our life, with all its highpoints and lowpoints, into conversation with Him, so that life itself thereby becomes a movement towards Him.” — Pope Benedict, September 12, 2008, addressing the cultural community in Paris.
