Richard Russo Quotes

It Pleased Him To Imagine God As Someone Like His Mother, Someone Beleagured By Too Many Responsibilities, Too Dog-tired To Monitor An Energetic Boy Every Minute Of The Day, But Who, Out Of Love And Fear For His Safety, Checked In On Him Whenever She Could.

Look What They're Up To Now." A Distractible God, Perhaps, One Who'd Be Startled To Discover So Many Of His Children Way Up In Trees Since The Last Time He Looked.

A God Who Could Be Surprised By Unanticipated Pride - Glory Be, That Boy Is A Climber!
