Adrian McKinty
“A paranoid man is a man who knows a little about what’s going on.”
Adrian McKinty, Police at the Station and They Don’t Look Friendly

“God awaits us with open arms; we need only to take a step toward him like the Prodigal Son. But if, weak as we are, we don't have the strength to take that step, just the desire to take it is enough.”
Andrea Tornielli, El nombre de Dios es Misericordia

Adrian McKinty
“You're a glass-half-empty kind of guy, sir, aren't you?"
"I don't even acknowledge the existence of the glass, son.”
Adrian McKinty, Police at the Station and They Don't Look Friendly

“Winter only hangs on long enough for us to forget the winters that came before.”
Justin Bond, Ordinary Monsters

Pope Francis
“Go to Jesus: he likes to hear about these things. He forgets, he has a special knack for forgetting. He forgets, he kisses you, he embraces you, and he says: ‘Neither do I condemn you. Go, [and] from now on do not sin any more.’ That is the only advice he gives. If things haven’t changed in a month…we go back to the Lord. The Lord never tires of forgiving: never! It is we who tire of asking him for forgiveness. We need to ask for the grace not to get tired of asking for forgiveness, because he never gets tired of forgiving.”
Pope Francis, The Name of God Is Mercy
