“Each of his son's had been his favorite child.”
“Not only am I not my dad’s favorite child—I’m his only child.”
“His last thought was that it hadn't been stupidity that had allowed his son to enchant him so easily with words. It had been love.”
“I honor the father in his son, not the son in his father. Each one receives a reward or punishment for his deeds, but not for the acts of others.”
“Glorious life ending. There must have been a moment when his son had gasped for air, the last time, as Jesus must. But as Jesus had risen, he wanted his son to rise up, organs and spirit and mind intact, and everything to be as it had been not so long ago.”
“Her (Mary's) Son first had to be the Child of the Father in order then to become man and be capable of taking up on his shoulders the burden of a guilty world.”
