Absolutely correct.  The article is excellent and true to my experience.

Seems like Bill's and Herman's responses were to the Thomas Merton quote (in
red below), not to the article.

Dear Colleagues:

I found this to be an interesting article. I couldn't help but wonder how
some of you would respond to it. Here is an exerpt and a link to the full
article is below:

"To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns,
to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects ...
is to succumb to violence. The frenzy of our activism ... kills the root of
inner wisdom which makes work fruitful."

        To stay alive, we needed prophet, pastor, and monk.
