“A Christian is supposed to be in the world, and yet not of the world--a Both/And as perplexing and demanding as the Either/Or that precedes the life of faith. I'm at once a pure, beautiful, genderless soul, but at the same time a gendered body full of flaws, sins, and wanting. This contradiction, the Both/And, is the Cross.”

Therese Doucet“Leaving your religion and having to invent your own system of values is a big deal, after all.”
Therese Doucet“I want to see the world without explaining away its mystery by calling things wicked, righteous, sinful, and good. I want to erase in myself the easy explanations, the always mendacious explanations about why things happen the way they do, and in this way, come to know the mystery of being–-not by any approximation in thought, but by being. I want to be and not be ashamed of being.”

Patience Johnson, Why Does an Orderly God Allow Disorder“Quotes is just quotes, cannot change your world if you not do think in that quotes, so just go and do anything...”
Libiyanto Dwi Cahya“Coming up with a useful, meaningful quote is getting more and more challenging each day....and you can quote me on that.”
Bobby Darnell, Time For Dervin - Living Large In Geiggityville“To me, quotes function as the sunscreen against a writers brilliance. As soon as I cannot stand to look at the magnificence of the acropolis of pure thought the writer managed to doll out in the cognizant chaos - I quote him, and by doing so I am discharged and freed. On the other hand, even while I do acknowledge that some things cannot be quoted, I vehemently distrust any writer whose army of quotes does not consist of impeccable warriors but the sort of bootless canon fodder that caused one to write in the first place, wishing to circumlocute that strappant lot. No writer can ever recover from bad quotes. I check the army of quotes, and if it has no sporting chance against a simple pack of butter then I will simply never ever read this person. One often hears short stories are the benchmark of great writers, but if you ask me, I'd rather first look at their quotes.”
Martijn Benders“Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.”
Groucho Marx“If all it takes to motivate you is a quote then this quote has nothing to say – except to go soar with the freakin’ eagles.”
Ryan Lilly“When I quote Scripture, I know I am quoting the very Word of God.”
