The capacity for ‘dialogue’ is rooted in the nature of the person and human dignity. …. the human person is in fact "the only creature on earth which God willed for itself"; thus we cannot "fully find ourselves except through a sincere gift of ourselves" (cf Gaudium et Spes 24). Dialogue is an indispensable step along the path toward human self-realization, the self-realization both of each individual and of every human community. (Pope John Paul II, Ut Unum Sint (1995) 28)
