Book cover for A Canticle for Leibowitz
From a distance, one’s adversaries seemed fiends, but with a closer view, one saw the sincerity, and it was as great as one’s own. Perhaps Satan was the sincerest of the lot.

Eugene Vodolazkin
“Each of us repeats Adam’s journey and acknowledges, with the loss of innocence, that he is mortal. Weep and pray, O Arseny. And do not fear death, for death is not just the bitterness of parting. It is also the joy of liberation.” (Laurus, p. 30)”
Eugene Vodolazkin

“For the Orthodox Christian, the assurance is very clear. There is nothing to fear in this phenomenon, UFOs are merely a further manifestation of demonic presence. Our task is not to engage with them, or pursue them, it is to focus on the same spiritual struggles that the Church has always taught us. We are not in danger, UFOs cannot harm us, as long as we confess and repent of our sins, pray, receive Holy Communion, and trust in God’s love. Satan is a liar and we must reject his deception.”
Spyridon Bailey, The UFO Deception: An Orthodox Christian Perspective

“Long gone are the days when automobiles expanded possibility and choice for the majority of Americans. Now, thanks to its ever-increasing demands for space, speed, and time, the car has reshaped our landscape and lifestyles around its own needs. It is an instrument of freedom that has enslaved us.”
Jeff Speck, Walkable City: How Downtown Can Save America, One Step at a Time

“Truth resists simplicity.”
John Green

C.S. Lewis
“The smells in the forest were beyond all that he had ever conceived. To say that they made him feel hungry and thirsty would be misleading; almost, they created a new kind of hunger and thirst, a longing that seemed to flow over from the body into the soul and which was a heaven to feel. Again and again he stood still, clinging to some branch to steady himself, and breathed it all in, as if breathing had become a kind of ritual.”
C.S. Lewis, Perelandra
