It is the ability to choose which makes us human.

With each book I write, I become more and more convinced that the books have a life of their own, quite apart from me.

Behind the violence of the birthing of galaxies and stars and planets came a quiet and tender melody, a gentle love song. All the raging of creation, the continuing hydrogen explosions on the countless suns, the heaving of planetary bodies, all was enfolded in a patient, waiting love.

No long-term marriage is made easily, and there have been times when I've been so angry or so hurt that I thought my love would never recover.

Because you're not what I would have you be, I blind myself to who, in truth, you are.

Love isn't how you feel. It's what you do. I've never had a feeling in my life. As a matter of fact, I matter only with earth people.

Man has a viewpoint, but God has the view.
