:

C.S. Lewis ~ "A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell"

Brennan Manning ~ "The reality of naked trust is the life of the pilgrim who leaves what is nailed down, obvious and secure. And walks into the unknown without any rational explanation to justify the decision or guarantee the future. Why? Because Yeshua has signaled the movement and offered it his presence and promise"

Albert Einstein ~ "My passionate sense of social justice and social responsibility has always contrasted oddly with my pronounced lack of need for direct contact with other human beings and human communities"

Isaac Asimov ~ "A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value"

Ursula K. LeGuin ~ “If you see a whole thing - it seems that it's always beautiful. Planets, lives... But up close a world's all dirt and rocks. And day to day, life's a hard job, you get tired, you lose the pattern"

Eliel Saarinen ~ “Always design a thing by considering it in its next larger context - a chair in a room, a room in a house, a house in an environment, an environment in a city plan”

Elisabeth Elliott ~ "Either we are adrift in chaos or we are individuals, created, loved, upheld and placed purposefully, exactly where we are. Can you believe that? Can you trust God for that?"

"every year for 29 years, i wake up on my birthday and decide if this is the day i am going to commit suicide. sometimes it takes until late afternoon to weigh the options. this year? i already am dead~~dead to family, to love, to laughter, to new beginnings.... so turn the gas off, it will be a long year of sheer terror and misery, welcome to my life. and to my friends? i do not know why you give a shit. i have done nothing except burden you with bullshit. things i cannot repay or pass on. the black hole of calcutta, that is me."
