Francis Bacon
“Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.”
Francis Bacon

Madeleine L'Engle
“Story always tells us more than the mere words, and that is why we love to write it, and to read it.”
Madeleine L'Engle

Eric Metaxas
“He had theologically redefined the Christian life as something active, not reactive. It had nothing to do with avoiding sin or with merely talking or teaching or believing theological notions or principles or rules or tenets. It had everything to do with living one’s whole life in obedience to God’s call through action. It did not merely require a mind, but a body too. It was God’s call to be fully human, to live as human beings obedient to the one who had made us, which was the fulfillment of our destiny. It was not a cramped, compromised, circumspect life, but a life lived in a kind of wild, joyful, full-throated freedom—that was what it was to obey God.”
Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy

Katherine Paterson
“The basic task of education is the care and feeding of the imagination.”
Katherine Paterson, A Sense of Wonder: On Reading and Writing Books for Children

Madeleine L'Engle
“The naked intellect is an extraordinarily inaccurate instrument.”
Madeleine L'Engle, A Wind in the Door
