"Spirituality does two things for you. One, you are forced to become more selfless, two, you trust to providence. The opposite of a spiritual man is a materialist. If I was a materialist I would be making lots of money doing endorsements, doing cricket commentary. I have no interest in that."

-- Imran Khan

“In good novelistic fashion, the discovery Iâ€™ve made is that itâ€™s complicated. I think thatâ€™s one of good things about exploring these questions in a non-polemic, fictional way: you get to feel out territory rather than take positions. Through writing this, I can understand the impulse to faith, how people make meaning, how people make community, without having to say, do this, donâ€™t do that, or I believe, I donâ€™t believe.”
