Edith Eger
“Perfectionism is the belief that something is broken - you. So you dress up your brokenness with degrees, achievements, accolades, pieces of paper, none of which can fix what you think you are fixing.”
Edith Eger, The Choice: Embrace the Possible

“You want to prove that the Bible is right? It is not done by self-fulfilling prophecies or by pointing to world events as prophecy fulfillment. That is not how you prove that the Bible is right. We prove that the Bible is right by radical obedience to the teachings of Jesus and by validating that Jesus' teachings actually do work and can make our world better. Let us love our enemies, forgive those who sin against us, feed the poor, care for the needy and oppressed, walk the extra mile, be inclusive not exclusive, turn the other cheek, and maybe then the world will start taking us seriously and believe our Bible!”
Munther Isaac, The Other Side of the Wall: A Palestinian Christian Narrative of Lament and Hope

Victor Hugo
“Er was iets in mij omvergehaald, dat zich niet meer op kon richten.”
Victor Hugo

Nathaniel Hawthorne
“She had schooled herself to hope for little other return than the waywardness of an April breeze; which spends its time in airy sport, and has its gusts of inexplicable passion and is petulant in its best of moods, and chills oftener than caresses you, when you take it to your bosom; in requital of which misdemeanours, it will sometimes, of its own vague purpose, kiss your cheek with a kind of doubtful tenderness, and play gently with your hair, and then begone about its other idle business, leaving a dreamy pleasure at your heart.”
Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter

“The irony of freedom is that it is harder to find hope and purpose. Now i must come to terms with the fact that anyone i marry won't know my parents. If i ever have children, they won't know their grandparents. It isn't just my own loss that hurts. It's the way it ripples out into the future.”
Edith Eva Eger, The Choice: Embrace the Possible
