Jo Walton
“There's a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they're absolutely free. Don't miss so many of them.”
Jo Walton

Barbara Brown Taylor
“Whoever you are, you are human. Wherever you are, you live in the world, which is just waiting for you to notice the holiness in it.”
Barbara Brown Taylor, An Altar in the World: A Geography of Faith

Francis Spufford
“God doesn't want your careful virtue, He wants your reckless generosity.”
Francis Spufford, Unapologetic: Why, Despite Everything, Christianity Can Still Make Surprising Emotional Sense

Anne Sexton
“Love? Be it man. Be it woman.
It must be a wave you want to glide in on,
give your body to it, give your laugh to it,
give, when the gravelly sand takes you,
your tears to the land. To love another is something
like prayer and can't be planned, you just fall
into its arms because your belief undoes your disbelief.”
Anne Sexton, The Complete Poems

John O'Donohue
“One of the deepest longings of the human soul is to be seen.”
John O'Donohue
