“If the Tiber rises too high, or the Nile too low, the remedy is always feeding Christians to the lions.”
― Tertullian

“He saw that omens were scattered throughout the earth and in space, and that there was no reason or significance attached to their appearance; he could see that not the deserts, nor the winds, nor the sun, nor people knew why they had been created. But that the hand had a reason for all of this, and only the hand could perform miracles, or transform the sea into a desert... or a man into the wind. Because only the hand understood that it was a larger design that had moved the universe to the point at which six days of creation had evolved into a master work.
The boy reached through to the Soul of the World, and saw that it was the Soul of God. And he saw that the Soul of God was his own soul. And that he, a boy, could perform miracles.”
― Paul Coelho

“What kept you at the oasis was your own fear that you might never come back”
