Karol Jackowski

  • While college years naturally provide times for one's individuality and personality to be explored and transformed, for the women who became nuns with me they were years of total self-denial: nun of this and nun of that.

  • For me, celibacy is freedom to come and go wherever and whenever I'm called, and not the lonely consequence of no marriage, no children, and no lover.

Karol Jackowski, U.S. religious, writer

(1946)
