Dan BrownSometimes, divine revelation simply means adjusting your brain to hear what your heart already knows." Angels and Demons p. 484
Dan BrownOh, this faithless world! Someone must deliver them. You. If not you, who? You have been saved for a reason. Show them the old demons. Remind them of their fear. Apathy is death. Without darkness, there is no light. Without evil, there is no good. Make them choose. Dark or light. Where is the fear? Where are the heroes? If not now, when?
