The Meaning of Jesus
Marcus J. Borg, N. T. Wright

At their best, both become completely unselfconscious activities; the self-conscious, fragmented person is totally thrown away and integrated in work, and for the moments of such work, be it prayer or writing, I know wholeness, and sunside and nightside are no longer divided.
The Irrational Season
Madeleine L'Engle
Near the end of his life, Mark Twain wisely said, “I have had a great many troubles, but most of them never happened.”

Gavin de Becker
