“Foolishness is the human condition, and exactly what God handles best.”

“The Path of the Heart is the Hardest to take, for the Heart will not Fool, and the Heart will not Fake.”

“If someone can handle you at your worst, they'll stick around for your best.”

“It is in the dark that God is passing by. The bridge and our lives shake not because God has abandoned, but the exact opposite: God is passing by. God is in the tremors. Dark is the holiest ground, the glory passing by. In the blackest, God is closest, at work, forging His perfect and right will. Though it is black and we can't see and our world seems to be free-falling and we feel utterly alone, Christ is most present to us...”

“I think people can be trusted to know what makes them unhappy. Maybe we don't always know what we want exactly, but we can usually say what we don't with a fair amount of specificity.”

“It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful human beings.”

“That is what a shadow is, and empty space, a hole in the light. Evil is this - a hole in the goodness of God.”
