In a brahmin house
where they feed the fire
as a god

when the fire goes wild
and burns the house

and the dust of the street,

and call the crowd.

These men then forget their worship
and scold their fire,
O lord of the meeting rivers! — Basava

Laura didn't want God popping our at her unexpectedly ... Probably God was in the boom closet. It seemed the most likely place. He was lurking in there like some eccentric and possibly dangerous uncle, but she couldn't be certain whether he was there at any given moment because she was afraid to open the door. "god is in your heart", said the Sunday-school teacher, and that was even worse. If in the broom closet, something might have been possible, such as locking the door. — Margaret Atwood

To me, my Dad's the greatest guy - next to Jesus Christ - who ever walked this planet. He's been that outstanding male role model in my life.

But here, in the danger-drenched climate of Nazi-controlled Europe, it was a combination that quickly bonded these four young men to each other and to Avi. — Joel C. Rosenberg

America is not a country, it is a world. — Oscar Wilde
