The call to preserve the aspiration towards higher things has defined Acad. Zoe Dumitrescu-Bușulenga - Mother Benedicta’s words, writing, and life – a life lived at the intensity of great culture and profound humanity based on faith and values.

The volume brings to the readers her words addressed to students during conferences and in several interviews given between 1990 and 2005. They underline the innate and absolute necessity of our bond with God to reach human fulfillment.
