“After you have said “thy will be done,” what more can be said?”
― Wendell Berry, Jayber Crow

“We human creatures can make watches and clocks and sensitive timing devices, but we don’t understand what we’re timing.”
― Madeleine L'Engle, An Acceptable Time

“When a father leads his four-year-old son down a crowded street, he takes him by the hand and says, “Hold on to me.” He doesn’t say, “Memorize the map” or “Take your chances dodging the traffic” or “Let’s see if you can find your way home.” The good father gives the child one responsibility: “Hold on to my hand.”
― Max Lucado, Anxious for Nothing: Finding Calm in a Chaotic World

“To be happy at home, said Johnson, is the end of all human endeavour. As long as we are thinking only of natural values we must say that the sun looks down on nothing half so good as a household laughing together over a meal, or two friends talking over a pint of beer, or a man alone reading a book that interests him;”
― C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
