Mary Oliver
“FOR TOM SHAW S.S.J.E. (1945–2014) Where has this cold come from? “It comes from the death of your friend.” Will I always, from now on, be this cold? “No, it will diminish. But always it will be with you.” What is the reason for it? “Wasn’t your friendship always as beautiful as a flame?”
Mary Oliver, Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver

Simone Weil
“...prayer consists of attention. It is the orientation of all the attention of which the soul is capable towards God. The quality of attention counts for much in the quality of the prayer. Warmth of heart cannot make up for it.”
Simone Weil, Waiting for God

Hanif Abdurraqib
“A person is a whole person when they are good sometimes but not always, and loved by someone regardless.”
Hanif Abdurraqib, They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us

C.S. Lewis
“My idea of God is not a divine idea. It has to be shattered time after time. He shatters it Himself. He is the great iconoclast. Could we not almost say that this shattering is one of the marks of His presence?”
C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

Walter Benjamin
“Not to find one's way around a city does not mean much. But to lose one's way in a city, as one loses one's way in a forest, requires some schooling. Street names must speak to the urban wanderer like the snapping of dry twigs, and little streets in the heart of the city must reflect the times of day, for him, as clearly as a mountain valley. This art I acquired rather late in life; it fulfilled a dream, of which the first traces were labyrinths on the blotting papers in my school notebooks.”
Walter Benjamin, Berlin Childhood around 1900
