Troy's favorite quotes

"We read to know that we are not alone."
C.S. Lewis

"A waiting person is a patient person. The word patience means the willingness to stay where we are and live the situation out to the full in the belief that something hidden there will manifest itself to us."
Henri J.M. Nouwen

"In that weekly ecstatic keeping of faith and bearing of witness, Delia fell in love with singing. Singing was something that might make sense of a person. Singing might make more sense of life than living had to start with."
Richard Powers (The Time of Our Singing: A Novel)
