Quotes by Dawn Klinge  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“A sideways rain quickly soaked the pair as
they made their way across the street toward a
small diner. Inside, the smell of coffee permeated
the air and Benny Goodman’s band could be
heard from a radio in the corner.”
Dawn Klinge, Sorrento Girl

“This is a temporary setback, not a failure. Let it be a challenge for you. If you want to be a teacher, your can do it. If you want to be a wife and a mother, you can do that too. If you want to be a teacher, a wife, and a mother, all at the same time, try your hardest!”
Dawn Klinge, Sorrento Girl

“Ann credited that experience as one that had set a course for where she was today. It had inspired her.”
Dawn Klinge, Sorrento Girl

“A sideways rain quickly soaked the pair as
they made their way across the street toward a
small diner. Inside, the smell of coffee permeated
the air and Benny Goodman’s band could be
heard from a radio in the corner.”
Dawn Klinge, Sorrento Girl

“Paul was focused on Ann, alone. “Would
you like to dance?”
The dreaded question. Not because the person
asking was dreadful. Quite the contrary. She
wasn’t immune to his charms, but Ann liked to
feel competent and in control. Dancing was not
going to make her feel that way.”
Dawn Klinge, Sorrento Girl

“The homily that day was on asking God for
guidance and wisdom when making decisions.
What if she prayed about her questions? Could
she still trust God if his answers were different
from what she wanted?”
Dawn Klinge, Sorrento Girl

“Trusting God's grace means trusting God's love for us rather than our love for God. […] Therefore our prayers should consist mainly of rousing our awareness of God's love for us rather than trying to rouse God's awareness of our love for him, like the priests of Baal on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18:26-29).”
Peter Kreeft, Prayer for Beginners

“But to enjoy him we must know him. Seeing is savoring. If he remains a blurry, vague fog, we may be intrigued for a season. But we will not be stunned with joy, as when the fog clears and you find yourself on the brink of some vast precipice.”
John Piper, Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist
