"It occurred to them for the first time in their lives that what's divine can come in dark skin."
"We have to learn not to feel guilty about letting our imagination browse around, and you know, in writing fiction particularly. But I think, in any kind of writing, we have to learn to allow ourselves to approach it in a contemplative way."
