“Nothing is more humbling than to look with a strong magnifying glass at an insect so tiny that the naked eye sees only the barest speck and to discover that nevertheless it is sculpted and articulated and striped with the same care and imagination as a zebra.

“They say a good love is one that sits you down, gives you a drink of water, and pats you on top of the head.

'Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him.”
