“I don't mind solitude. I love talking to other people, but I do need my space.”
“Grace stands in direct opposition to any supposed worthiness on our part. To say it another way: Grace and works are mutually exclusive. As Paul said in Romans 11:6, "And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace." Our relationship with God is based on either works or grace. There is never a works-plus-grace relationship with Him.”

“I havenâ€™t had trouble with writerâ€™s block. I think itâ€™s because my process involves writing very badly. My first drafts are filled with lurching, clichÃ©d writing, outright flailing around.

“Go without a coat when it's cold; find out what cold is. Go hungry; keep your existence lean. Wear away the fat, get down to the lean tissue and see what it's all about. The only time you define your character is when you go without. In times of hardship, you find out what you're made of and what you're capable of. If you're never tested, you'll never define you character.”
