“Taken out of context and given a forty-degree twist, you can use the Bible to justify almost anything.”
J.A. Jance, Until Proven Guilty

Louise Penny
“The fault is here, but so is the solution. That’s the grace.”
Louise Penny, Still Life

“Feed my sheep, feed my sheep," I repeated. "He didn't say, 'Feed my sheep after you check their ID.”
Sara Miles, Take This Bread: A Radical Conversion

“I'm going to miss them,' said a Federal Building guard; he had started learning sign language and hoped one day to become a sign language interpreter. 'They were real nice people.”
Judith Heumann, Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist

“Scripture scholars contend that the original language of the Beatitudes should not be rendered as "Blessed are the single-hearted" or "Blessed are the peacemakers" or "Blessed are those who struggle for justice." Greater precision in translation would say, "You're in the right place if...you are single-hearted or work for peace." The Beatitudes is not a spirituality, after all. It's a geography. It tells us where to stand.”
Gregory Boyle, Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion
