Eric MaiselYou think my first instinct is to protect you. Because you're small, or a girl, or a Stiff. But you're wrong." He leans his face close to mine and wraps his fingers around my chin.

Jason MrazThere is nothing in either savage or civilized history that is more utterly complete, more remorselessly sweeping than the Father of Mercyยดs campaign among the Midianites. The official report deals only in masses, all the virgins, all the men, all the babies. all ยดcreatures that breathe,ยด all houses. all cities. It gives you just one vast picture ...as far as the eye can reach, of charred ruins and storm-swept desolation...

If you've ever dreamed that you walked into your best-loved book or film or TV program, then maybe you've got some idea how it felt: things coming alive around you, strange and new and utterly familiar at the same time; the catch in your heartbeat as you move through the rooms that had such a vivid untouchable life in your mind, as your feet actually touch the carpet, as you breathe the air; the odd, secret glow of warmth as these people you've been watching for so long, from so far away, open their circle and sweep you into it.

Pope John Paul III like it that they [disciples] feed me and pay for my clothes and protect me. And in return I will do for them what I can, but no more than that.

And I know how deeply this disturbs them, and it would make me smile, this earnest need for foolish anecdote or sharp simple patterns in the story of what happened to us all, except that I have forgotten how to smile.
