“That was what he'd seen in this girl, a beauty that allowed him to perceive the waste and blight infecting the word...it was as if she'd experienced life's hardness and cruelties, yet had remained somehow untarnished by them. How was it possible?”

“End of Memory Quotes Part II:
Dante asserts that "what is good during this earthly existence will be remembered; the good is 'ingathered and bound by love into a single volume' in the eternal light which is God." Dante Paradiso canto XXXIII 85-86 (189)
We must view God, specifically Christ the sacrifice, as an event which has been completed. We will one day understand that Christ has paid the price, that his death is not an ongoing act but one that has been completed and has been finished. So Christ's death does not remain with us throughout eternity. Rather, having had paid the price, Christ liberates us to worship God for who he is as opposed to what he has done for us.
191
Chapter of imagined reconciliation on 219-227 for forgiveness
"What I am against is retribution. It's incompatible with forgiveness and reconciliation. I am for transformation...Either God exists and is then at the center of everything and effects all, or God doesn't exist. It is foolish to believe in a God who does nothing. An idle God is a false God."
