Hanya Yanagihara
“Why wasn’t friendship as good as a relationship? Why wasn’t it even better? It was two people who remained together, day after day, bound not by sex or physical attraction or money or children or property, but only by the shared agreement to keep going, the mutual dedication to a union that could never be codified.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Richard Paul Evans
“I work at a retirement home. I'm a CNA.”
“What's that?”
“It stands for Certified Nursing Assistant.”
“That sounds important,” I said.
She laughed. “If changing old people's diapers is important.”
I thought for a moment, then said, “It is for the old people.”
Richard Paul Evans, The Broken Road

“Christianity was not meant to be a weapon or an argument or a show of force or a political tool. Or an act of aggression or coercion. It was never meant to be a cause or a prop for a cause. Or something to pacify and make thousands go to bed happy and unthinking. It was meant to be a challenge, yes, but that challenge to a second life was meant to be laced with kindness. If someone forces you to choose between God is holy and God is love choose God is love because holiness without love translates into tyranny.”
Murray Pura
