"You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children."

"Rather than feeling lost and unimportant and meaningless, set against galaxies which go beyond the reach of the furthest telescopes, I feel that my life has meaning. Perhaps I should feel insignificant, but instead I feel a soaring in my heart that the God who could create all this - and out of nothing - can still count the hairs of my head."

"Calvin said, "Do you know that this is the first time I've seen you without your glasses?""I'm blind as a bat without them.

I don't think I want anybody else to see what gorgeous eyes you have."

Love
"Because you're not what I would have you be, I blind myself to who, in truth, you are."
Truth
"A straight line is not the shortest distance between two points."
