Life's markers are never just for one moment in time. Every event holds a key. Each builds upon the other and becomes an indicator towards a higher purpose. ↗

But you can't start. Only a baby can start. You and me - why, we're all that's been. The anger of a moment, the thousand pictures, that's us. This land, this red land, is us; and the flood years and the dust years and the drought years are us. We can't start again. The bitterness we sold to the junk man - he got it all right, but we have it still. And when the owner men told us to go, that's us; and when the tractor hit the house, that's us until we're dead. To California or any place - every one a drum major leading a parade of hurts, marching with our bitterness. And some day - the armies of bitterness will all be going the same way. And they'll all walk together, and there'll be a dead terror from it. ↗

Don't just ask God to use you; ask Him to use you up. Then pray more than you've ever prayed before to be able to keep that commitment! ↗

Trust is like a two-way mirror, transparent on one side, with a blind dimness unable to see through on the other side. ↗

Someday every woman will have orgasms- like every family has color TV- and we can all get on with the business of life. ↗
