Book cover for The Little Way of Ruthie Leming: A Southern Girl, a Small Town, and the Secret of a Good Life
I had somehow come to think of her living in a small town as equivalent to her living a small life.

“No bird soars in a calm. WILBUR WRIGHT”
David McCullough, The Wright Brothers

Corrie ten Boom
“Father sat down on the edge of the narrow bed. "Corrie," he began gently, "when you and I go to Amsterdam-when do I give you your ticket?"
I sniffed a few times, considering this.
"Why, just before we get on the train."
"Exactly. And our wise Father in heaven knows when we're going to need things, too. Don't run out ahead of Him, Corrie. When the time comes that some of us will have to die, you will look into your heart and find the strength you need-just in time.”
Corrie ten Boom, The Hiding Place: The Triumphant True Story of Corrie Ten Boom

David McCullough
“If a boy finds he can make a few articles with his hands, it tends to make him rely on himself. And the planning that is necessary for the execution of the work is a discipline and an education of great value to him.”
David McCullough, The Wright Brothers

Tullian Tchividjian
“God's capacity to forgive is greater than our capacity to sin; while our sin reaches far, God's grace reaches farther. It's a message revealing the radical contrast between the sinful heart of mankind and the gracious heart of mankind's Creator.”
Tullian Tchividjian, Surprised by Grace: God's Relentless Pursuit of Rebels

“I have been wrong to hide my temper so completely. All this time I have been inadvertently teaching my girls that goodness is the absence of faults. An unattainable goal that can only lead to a lifetime of discouragement. Effortless virtue is a fairy tale, so far as I can tell. The honor is in the struggle.”
Sarah Miller, Marmee
