Quote of the day: Benedict XVI

From the new encyclical, Caritas in Veritate:
Pope Paul VI noted that "the world is in trouble because of the lack of thinking".

He's referencing Paul VI's Populorum Progressio. The Vatican translation reads, "It must be admitted that men very often find themselves in a sad state because they do not give enough thought and consideration to these things."

I think I like Benedict's take better.
