A quote from Michael Harding's 'Staring at Lakes'.
"One of the most common questions women ask is: 'What are you thinking?
"One of the most common answers men give is: 'Nothing'."
And when it comes to priests multiply that 'Nothing' by many times.
Harding's book should be on the booklist in every seminary and place where men are preparing for priesthood.

Not that I am entering the priesthood anytime soon, but that book is on my 'next thing I must read' list.
