Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes“It comforted her, in the confused unhappy welter of her emotions, to see the mountains always tranquil, remote, in their lonely splendour; untouchable, serenely inviolate. It was an obscure comfort to her to know that man's hectic world wasn't the only one — that there were others, where agitation and passion and bewilderment had no place. When her love turned into a chaotic fever-dream, in which she was tossing, hallucinated, frightened and miserable, she had longed to escape to the cold, austere, changeless beauty and peace of the snow.”
Anna Kavan“It’s about needing to feel loved and comforted but feeling unworthy of real love and comfort. It’s about hating having needs and desires. For some of us, needs make us feel greedy and selfish. For some of us, having needs means we can easily get hurt if those needs are not met. For some of us, we don’t believe we deserve to have our needs met. We try to convince ourselves that we don’t need anything by avoiding food, one of our greatest primal needs.”
Emma McEvoy“Job tries to comfort himself with philosophical pessimism like the intellectuals of the nineteenth century. But God comforts Job with indecipherable mystery, and for the first time Job is comforted. . . . Job flings at God one riddle, God flings back at Job a hundred riddles, and Job is at peace. He is comforted with conundrums.”
G.K. Chesterton“She had always been comforted by confectionery”
Sue Townsend, The Woman Who Went to Bed for a Year“And in blessing himI was blessed,And in comforting himI was comforted…”
Jessica Coupé, Daystar Rising: A Story of the First Christmas“To be comforted by God is a promise that few of us ever receive, because we are consumed with controlling our situations to avoid being vulnerable.”
E'yen A. Gardner, Humbly Submitting to Change - The Wilderness Experience“Many a one has been comforted in their sorrow by seeing a good dish come upon the table.”
Elizabeth Gaskell, Cranford
