“Dis maklik om te sê die kerk is ’n droë ou moeder. Tog wil ek my nie indink wat sal in die woestyn van barmhartigheid gebeur as die wêreld op ’n oggend wakker word en alle kerke het oornag hulle deure gesluit en hulle aktiwiteite gestaak nie. Geen brood om uit te deel nie. Geen sendingstasies of sopkombuise nie. Niemand om mense te doop en te begrawe nie. Eers op daardie dag sal ons besef die ou moeder was toe al die tyd nie so dor as wat ons gedink het nie.”
― Annelie Botes, Swart op Wit

“You learn not to mourn every little thing out here, or you’d never, ever stop grieving.”
― Alexandra Fuller, Cocktail Hour Under the Tree of Forgetfulness

“Oh, but Barack Obama was no mere man. He was a paragon of intelligence and civilized society. A savior to the world’s depressed. A lightbringer. A genius thinking thoughts the common man could never hope to comprehend. And his words—his beautiful words read from crystal panes—reached down to our souls and told us all would be well. With the simple act of casting a ballot for Barack Obama, we could make the world an immeasurably better place—a world of peace, of love, of understanding, of unicorns, of rainbows, of expanded entitlements. This was his promise. And now, having had him as president for more than two years, we can say without reservation that he has delivered all his promises and more and is the best president this country—or any country—has ever had or could even imagine to have.”
― Frank J. Fleming, Obama: The Greatest President in the History of Everything
