It takes too much energy to be against something unless it's... - Madeleine L'Engle

"When the bright angel dominates, out comes a great work of art, a Michelangelo David or a Beethoven symphony."

"It's not my brain that's writing the book, it's these hands of mine."

"It takes too much energy to be against something unless it's really important."

"I do not think that I will ever reach a stage when I will say, "This is what I believe. Finished."What I believe is alive ... and open to growth"

"If it can be verified, we don't need faith... Faith is for that which lies on the other side of reason. Faith is what makes life bearable, with all its tragedies and ambiguities and sudden, startling joys."
