For our own Church, that what is lacking in it may be supplied; what is unsound, corrected; that all Heresies, Schisms, Scandals, as well public as private, may be removed. Correct the wandering, convert the unbelieving, increase the faith of the Church, destroy Heresies, discover the crafty enemies, crush the violent.
Lancelot AndrewesUnfortunately, there can be no doubt that man is, on the whole, less good than he imagines himself or wants to be.

M.I.A.The great thing about fiction is that I don't have to settle on an answer to any troubling question, or even a solution.

We all screw up, but the women I write about don't have back-up plans or money in the back or resources to fix what they have broken.

And other people might jump at the opportunity.
