C.S. Lewis
“What do people mean when they say, 'I am not afraid of God because I know He is good'? Have they never even been to a dentist?”
C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

C.S. Lewis
“You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life and death to you. It is easy to say you believe a rope to be strong and sound as long as you are merely using it to cord a box. But suppose you had to hang by that rope over a precipice.

C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

Barbara Kingsolver
“But the wicked have a different head for numbers than most. Any bad they do will end up on the side of never-mind. What’s done to them weighs double.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

Stephen  King
“There may be fairies, there may be elves, but God helps those who help themselves.”
Stephen King, Misery

Joan Didion
“Had I been blessed with even limited access to my own mind there would have been no reason to write. I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear.”
Joan Didion, Let Me Tell You What I Mean
