“The way we live ought to manifest the truth of what we believe. A messy life speaks of a messy and incoherent faith.”
“What a mess. Truths are messy and lies are messy, and I don’t care what Da said, it’s impossible to cut a person into pielike pieces, neat and tidy.”
“Some parts of life have to be messy before they can become beautiful.”
“A person will sometimes devote all his life to the development of one part of his body— the wishbone.”
