Being a parent means that one is constantly acting and examining with one's whole visible and invisible being - what is good and clean in us, and what is bad and dirty: we pass it on. We are constantly on the air, even if we don't know it. In fact, especially then! (...) What you have spoiled in yourself, you continue to give. Not only as a genetic inheritance, but much more as a spiritual pattern, sin and virtue, a quality of your being unknown even to you. But what you redeem in yourself - you can also redeem in your offspring.

Hungarian

"Szülőnek lenni azt jelenti, hogy az ember egész látható és láthatatlan lényével szüntelenül hat és vizsgázik - ami jó bennünk és tiszta, s ami rossz és koszos: továbbadjuk. Állandó adásban vagyunk, akkor is, ha nem tudjuk. Sőt, főleg akkor! (...) Amit magadban elrontottál, tovább is adod. Nemcsak mint genetikus örökséget, hanem sokkal inkább mint lelki mintát, bűnt és erényt, lényed általad is ismeretlen minőségét. De amit magadban megváltasz - az utódaidban is megválthatod."
