The Scandal of Christendom Quotes

“I had not seen Margaret for years, but when I heard she had died, she consumed my thoughts. Grief is like that. One day you think yourself in control of your life, then this usurper moves in and does not leave. He settles in your heart and makes a kingdom there. There is nothing you can do, no arms or men to call to your aid. You must accept the interloper and bend to his will.”
― G. Lawrence, The Scandal of Christendom
