Mary Doria Russell Quotes

...trust In God Could Impose An Additional Burden On Good People Slammed To Their Knees By Some Senseless Tragedy. An Atheist Might Be No Less Staggered By Such An Event, But Nonbelievers Often Experienced A Kind Of Calm Acceptance: Shit Happens, And This Particular Shit Happened To Them. It Could Be More Difficult For A Person Of Faith To Get To His Feet Precisely Because He Had To Reconcile God's Love And Care With The Stupid, Brutal Fact That Something Irreversibly Terrible Had Happened.
