"We need Houses of Hospitality to give to the rich the opportunity to serve the poor...we need Houses of Hospitality to show what idealism looks like when it is practiced...we need Houses of Hospitality to bring social justice through Catholic Action exercised in Catholic institutions."
(Dorothy Day, circa 1935)
