“I experienced the Church to be this refuge within and beyond myself.”
James Finley, Meditation for Christians: Entering the Mind of Christ

Annie Dillard
“An Eskimo shaman said, "Life’s greatest danger lies in the fact that man’s food consists entirely of souls".”
Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek

Annie Dillard
“I have often noticed that these things, which obsess me, neither bother nor impress other people even slightly. I am horribly apt to approach some innocent at a gathering, and like the ancient mariner, fix him with a wild, glitt’ring eye and say, “Do you know that in the head of the caterpillar of the ordinary goat moth there are two hundred twenty-eight separate muscles?” The poor wretch flees. I am not making chatter; I mean to change his life.”
Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek

“Poets are powerless to force the gift of words onto blank paper; but poets can freely choose to assume the inner stance that offers the least resistance to being overtaken and carried along by the gift of poetry.”
James Finley

Brandon Sanderson
“Sometimes a hypocrite is nothing more than a man in the process of changing.”
Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer
