It's not my brain that's writing the book, it's these hands... - Madeleine L'Engle

"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"

"It might be a good idea if, like the White Queen, we practiced believing six impossible things every morning before breakfast, for we are called on to believe what to many people is impossible. Instead of rejoicing in this glorious "impossible"which gives meaning and dignity to our lives, we try to domesticate God, to make his might actions comprehensible to our finite minds."

"Truth is what is true, and it's not necessarily factual. Truth and fact are not the same thing. Truth does not contradict or deny facts, but it goes through and beyond facts. This is something that it is very difficult for some people to understand. Truth can be dangerous."

"You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children."
