“There will be many times in your lives - at school, and more particularly when you are grown up - when people will distract or divert you from what needs to be done. You may even welcome the distraction. But if you use it as an excuse for not doing what your're supposed to do, you can blame no one but yourself. If you truly wish to accomplish something, you should allow nothing to stop you, and chances are you'll succeed.”

“Rules were invented by elders so they could get to bed early. Men who speak endlessly on authority only prove they have none. And kings who make speeches about submission only betray twin fears in their hearts: they are not certain they are really true leaders, sent of God. And they live in mortal fear of a rebellion...
No... authority from God is not afraid of challenges, makes no defense, and cares not one whit if it must be dethroned.”
― Gene Edwards, A Tale of Three Kings: A Study in Brokenness
