Maria, deitada de costas, estava acordada e atenta, olhava fixamente um ponto em frente, e parecia esperar. Sem pronunciar palavra, José aproximou-se e afastou devagar o lençol que a cobria. Ela desviou os olhos, soergueu um pouco a parte inferior da túnica, mas só acabou de puxá-la mais para cima, à altura do ventre, quando ele já se vinha debruçando e procedia do mesmo modo com a sua própria túnica, e Maria, entretanto, abrira as pernas, ou as tinha aberto durante o sonho e desta maneira as deixara ficar, fosse por inusitada indolência matinal ou pressentimento de mulher casada que conhece os seus deveres. Deus, que está em toda a parte, estava ali, mas sendo aquilo que é, um puro espírito, não podia ver como a pele de um tocava a pele do outro, como a carne dele penetrou a carne dela, criadas uma e outra para isso mesmo, e, provavelmente, já nem lá se encontraria quando a semente sagrada de José se derramou no sagrado interior de Maria, sagrados ambos por serem a fonte e a taça da vida, em verdade há coisas que o próprio Deus não entende, embora as tivesse criado. Tendo pois saído para o pátio, Deus não pôde ouvir o som agónico, como um estertor, que saiu da boca do varão no instante da crise, e menos ainda o levíssimo gemido que a mulher não foi capaz de reprimir. ↗


— José Saramago

This act [creation], as it is for God, must always remain totally inconceivable to man. For we--even our poets and musicians and inventors--never, in the ultimate sense make. We only build. We always have materials to build from. All we can know about the act of creation must be derived from what we can gather about the relation of the creatures to their Creator ↗


— C.S. Lewis

Why would we want fame, when God promises us glory? Why would we be seeking the wealth of the world when the wealth of heaven is ours? Why would we run for a crown that will perish with time, when we're called to win a crown that is imperishable? ↗


— Paul Washer

Nick chided a censor, who wished some books gone, and suggested she scan Fahrenheit 451. For the book-budget cutters, Old Claus had no plan, cause if they could read, they just read Ayn Rand. ↗

Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to never was there, and where you are is no good unless you can get away from it. Where is there a place for you to be? No place. Nothing outside you can give you any place," he said. "You needn't look at the sky because it's not going to open up and show no place behind it. You needn't to search for any hole in the ground to look through into somewhere else. You can't go neither forwards nor backwards into your daddy's time nor your children's if you have them. In yourself right now is all the place you've got. If there was any Fall, look there, if there was any Redemption, look there, and if you expect any Judgment, look there, because they all three will have to be in your time and your body and where in your time and your body can they be? ↗


— Flannery O'Connor

Nature, reason, and Christianity recognize no other. Pride may say Nay; but Pride was always a liar, and a great hater of the truth. ↗
