The L'Arche Canada Foundation in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada with Jean Vanier's Daily Thoughts for Sunday, 23 October 2016 "Fear of Authority"
Many people [in communities] are afraid of authority and of taking it on. To them, authority seems to lack tenderness and relationship. They see it as only bad and bullying. Perhaps this is one of the ills of our times; the tendency everywhere seems to be to separate authority from love and make it legalistic.[Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 207]
