"I am grateful to Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism, for they have been my guides in life, leading me by the hand to Christ. Christ constitutes the unity of my life, allowing me to find a single center of gravity amidst a diverse cultural background."

"In Confucian classics, I see the pursuit of benevolence and righteousness; in Mahayana Buddhism, I see the grand aspiration to save all sentient beings. I do not consider these heretical; on the contrary, they are echoes of the true light that illuminates everyone in different cultures. Christ's coming is not to destroy these desires for truth, but to fulfill them and bring them into a more complete and clear divine revelation."
— Timothy Richard
