Michael C. HallI don't have an issue with what you do in the church but I'm going to be up in your face if you're going to knock on my science classroom and tell me I got to teach what you're teaching in your Sunday school.

There are no scientists picketing out front of churches. There's been this coexistence forever, so to have religious communities knocking down the science door, there's something wrong there.

William SaroyanMost of us feel on some level like race horses chomping at the bit, pressing at the gate, hoping and praying for someone to open the door and let us run out.

But the only person who can free us is ourselves. Most of us know that. We realize that the locked door is our own fear.

Terry Tempest WilliamsThe law of giving and receiving is fundamental, and relates just as much to God as it does to us. As we go through the door of giving ourselves to God in worship we find that God comes through that same door and gives Himself to us. God's insistence that we worship Him is not really a demand at all but an offer-an offer to share Himself with us. When God asks us to worship Him, He is asking us to fulfill the deepest longing in Himself, which is His passionate desire to give Himself to us. It is what Martin Luther called "the joyful exchange."

No matter by which culture a woman is influenced, she understands the words wild and woman, intuitively.

Jessica MendozaIt is well known that obedience is the chief among the initiatory virtues, for first it displaces presumption and then it engenders humility within us.

The companions are very much the everyman, and the audience watches the story through their eyes, so they could be the person next door. And everybody's different.

Paddy AshdownAll the delights of sense, or heart, or intellect, with which you could once have tempted him, even the delights of virtue itself, now seem to him in comparison but as the half nauseous attractions of a raddled harlot would seem to a man who hears that his true beloved whom he has loved all his life and whom he had believed to be dead is alive and even now at his door.
