“Writing and prayer are both a form of love, and love takes courage.”
― Pat Schneider, How the Light Gets In: Writing as a Spiritual Practice

“It occurred to me that when I begin to write, I open myself and wait. And when I turn toward an inner spiritual awareness, I open myself and wait.”
― Pat Schneider, How the Light Gets In: Writing as a Spiritual Practice

“In writing, we see, sometimes with fear and trembling, who we have been, who we really are, and we glimpse now and then who we might become.”
― Pat Schneider, How the Light Gets In: Writing as a Spiritual Practice

“Writing is an animal that lives in the soul. It must not be whipped into doing tricks. It is not a circus animal. It can be fierce, but it is not malevolent. It can be playful, but it is not without wisdom. Above all, it is wild. A wild animal has to sleep sometimes. This is a time of deep sleep for my writing.”
