Graham Greene
“You were there teaching me to squander, so that one day we might have nothing left except this love of You. But You are too good to me. When I ask You for Pain, You give me peace. Give it him too. Give him my peace-he needs it more.”
Graham Greene, The End of the Affair

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

Walter M. Miller Jr.
“Bless me Father, I ate a lizard.”
Walter Miller Jr., A Canticle for Leibowitz

J.R.R. Tolkien
“A divine 'punishment’ is also a divine 'gift’, if accepted, since its object is ultimate blessing, and the supreme inventiveness of the Creator will make 'punishments’ (that is changes of design) produce a good not otherwise to be attained”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien

Graham Greene
“I have no need to write to you or talk to you, you know everything before I can speak, but when one loves, one feels the need to use the same old ways one has always used. I know I am only beginning to love, but already I want to abandon everything, everybody but you: only fear and habit prevent me.”
Graham Greene, The End of the Affair
