"Love attacks. It sneaks up like a pride of lions or a pack of hyenas and eats your heart out while you watch. Love is the bully on the playground who takes your lunch money and gives you a black eye in return, the arsonist who burns your house down with you in it, the witch who lures you into her home with candy and boils you alive for dinner. Love is raw, and violent, and instantaneous. You donâ€™t fall in love; you get trampled by it."

“People think that a liar gains a victory over his victim. What Iâ€™ve learned is that a lie is an act of self-abdication, because one surrenders oneâ€™s reality to the person to whom one lies, making that person oneâ€™s master, condemning oneself from then on to faking the sort of reality that personâ€™s view requires to be fakedâ€¦The man who lies to the world, is the worldâ€™s slave from then onâ€¦There are no white lies, there is only the blackest of destruction, and a white lie is the blackest of all.”
“The imagined memories had to have as much weight as the real, or we had to at least pretend they did to such a degree that they just very well might have. And so I never questioned Angela about that particular story, or about all the troubling things that it pointed to, content to believe that at least in this version things worked for her better than they did in the one I never heard.”

“If some day they take the radio station away from us, if they close down our newspaper, if they donâ€™t let us speak, if they kill all the priests and the bishop too, and you are left, a people without priests, each one of you must be Godâ€™s microphone, each one of you must be a messenger, a prophet. The church will always exist as long as there is one baptized person. And that one baptized person who is left in the world is responsible before the world for holding aloft the banner of the Lordâ€™s truth and of his divine justice.”
“The institution of royalty in any form is an insult to the human race.”
