Abraham   Verghese
“Faith is to know the pattern is there, even though none is visible.”
Abraham Verghese, The Covenant of Water

“French philosopher Paul Virilio has a quote I think about a lot: “When you invent the ship, you also invent the shipwreck; when you invent the plane, you also invent the plane crash; and when you invent electricity, you invent electrocution…. Every technology carries its own negativity, which is invented at the same time as technical progress.”
Kara Swisher, Burn Book: A Tech Love Story

David Bentley Hart
“A belief does not merit unconditional reverence just because it is old or because its proponents claim a divine authority for it that they cannot prove; neither should it be immune to being challenged in terms commensurate to the scandal it poses.”
David Bentley Hart, That All Shall Be Saved: Heaven, Hell, and Universal Salvation

David Bentley Hart
“Christians have been trained at a very deep level of their thinking to believe that the idea of an eternal hell is a clear and unambiguous element of their faith, and that therefore the idea must make perfect moral sense.”
David Bentley Hart, That All Shall Be Saved: Heaven, Hell, and Universal Salvation

“Your suffering does not make you special, it does not make your life more interesting, significant or heroic. It does not make for a better story. It doesn't even make you worthy of love or compassion.”
Alan Noble
