“Joy is the best makeup.”

“Writing like this is a little like milking a cow: the milk is so rich and delicious, and the cow is so glad you did it.”

“You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.”

“Teenagers who do not go to church are adored by God, but they don't get to meet some of the people who love God back.”

“I didn't need to understand the hypostatic unity of the Trinity; I just needed to turn my life over to whoever came up with redwood trees.”

“I made you fragile so you'd take each other seriously”

“God and religion before every thing!' Dante cried. 'God and religion before the world.'”
