“Even when I was Archbishop of Wales and working with new bishops, I us...” — Rowan Williams Quote

“Even when I was Archbishop of Wales and working with new bishops, I used to say, not realising quite how true it was, 'One of the things you will do as a bishop is disappoint people'.”

“The Church is the new creation, it is life and joy, it is the sacramental fellowship in which we share the ultimate purpose of God, made real for us now in our hearing the Word and sharing the Sacrament.”

“At the end of the Middle Ages, nobody would ever have expected the monasteries to vanish from the scene within a generation - yet they did. Change does happen.”

“In my time as Archbishop of Canterbury I've seen a growing sense of unity and mission.”

“Is there a bigger hypocrite than Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury and the CEO of 'Lords Bank?'”

“Archbishop - A Christian ecclesiastic of a rank superior to that attained by Christ.”
