“It is the quintessential story about perseverance but also about our humanness. We tend to regard ourselves as super-human, but the moment we detect a flaw we crash and lose confidence. We'd rather die than admit failure. Yet God compels us to dust ourselves off and fight another day. Like he does with James Bond.”

“I never wanted the experience of rape to turn me into a Trauma Queen; but what I didn't know then, but know now, is that when you don't forgive yourself, you keep gnawing - even subconsciously - at your own scar tissue.”

“Hello, Sister Wally," I said brightly. But she did not reply. Her eyes were red, and she kept snatching a tissue from the pocket of her habit. I asked if she wanted to talk, but she just shook her head. How we love to hold on to our pain.”
