“...I give you the mausoleum of all hope and desire...I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you might forget it now and then for a moment and not spend all of your breath trying to conquer it. Because no battle is ever won he said. They are not even fought. The field only reveals to man his own folly and despair, and victory is an illusion of philosophers and fools.”
― William Faulkner, The Sound and the Fury

“Be thou glad sleeper and thy sorrow offcast. I am the gate to all good adventure.”
― C.S. Lewis, That Hideous Strength

“I have a great need for Christ: I have a great Christ for my need.”
― Charles H. Spurgeon

“I do believe I begin to grasp the nature of miracles! For would it be a miracle, if there was any reason for it? Miracles have nothing to do with reason. Miracles contradict reason, they strike clean across mere human deserts, and deliver and save where they will. If they made sense, they would not be miracles.”
― Ellis Peters, A Morbid Taste for Bones
