Favorite saying

• "Oh what joy for those whose disobedience has been forgiven. "The lake was flat in front of them, the islands across the way reflected in a green Rorschach on the surface. Silent ripples opened and closed on the lake surface, fish coming up to feed. Rebecca imagined tiny, serrated mouths blossoming all over, making holes in the surface, little pits with stomachs at the bottom. This was the kind of picture her mind offered up from time to time, an image that uncovered an ugly reality where someone else might only see something beautiful." - from Fidelity by Michael Redhill "How prompt are we to satisfy the hunger & thirst of our bodies; how slow to satisfy the hunger & thirst of our souls. Indeed we who would be practical folks cannot use this word without blushing because of our infidelity, having starved this substance almost to a shadow...Haven't we ourselves everlasting life to get? And isn't that the only excuse at last for eating drinking sleeping or even carrying an umbrella when it rains?" -Hans Iverson "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return." -Genesis 3:19"
