Shea Darian, Sanctuaries of Childhood: Nurturing a Child's Spiritual Life“Under the sanctuary are the catacombs where the dead wait for resurrection. The living do not venture there. The caverns here underneath the Sanctuary are illuminated only by dim shafts of light from the sanctuary. The walls are etched with flowers of frost, but at least I am out of the wind.

Ned Hayes, Sinful Folk“Do not let your ambitions become a sanctuary for your failures.”
