CWN Editor's Note: “Don’t go looking for those who have shown they are prudent, measured, and detail-oriented,” said Cardinal Angelo De Donatis, vicar general of Rome since 2017. “We do not need competent and qualified professionals.” Instead, he called for the inclusion of “people who draw outside the lines, people whom the Holy Spirit has made passionate about imperfection ... [who] are able to dream, to infect others with their dreams and want to experience something new.”

    It's important surely that we look for leaders who understand that prudence is the queen of the virtues and can transcend the everyday misuse of language. Prudence, of course, is right reason in acting...not in stalling or temporizing.
