“Every now and again, people need to pause at life,' Catherine said in her soft French accent, 'they need to enjoy some calm and reflect. Pilgrimage is all about the simple pleasures we too often forget.”

“It was Reto, with whom I crossed the Cisa Pass, who said that a pilgrimage is made up of two parts: the first, penance, while you order your thoughts; and the second, absolution, when you walk with a clear head. But I believe there is also a third part, and that is grief for the hole in life that the completed undertaking leaves.”

“Angels, I am now convinced, inhabit people temporarily, such that a person can then do a good deed for another at precisely the moment required. When that is done, the angel flits off somewhere else. Why else would they have wings? Occasionally, however, in order to achieve whatever they deem needs to be done in a timely manner, angels will occupy the most unlikely of beings, and, I suspect, derive a degree of mischievous pleasure in the process.”
