“The divinity of Jesus is not a dispensable extra that has no significance for our salvation. On the contrary, our salvation depends on it. We can be saved only by God Himself.”
“Curran scrutinized Martâ€™s face. â€œI canâ€™t figure out if he wants to kill you or screw you.â€ â€œIâ€™ll be glad to make the choice for him.â€ Curran looked back at me. â€œWhy is it you always attract creeps?â€ â€œYou tell me.â€ Ha! Walked right into that one, yes, he did.”
“There are no lost causes because there are no gained causes.”
“Get into the habit of dealing with God about everything. Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and let God in, you will work on a wrong level all day; but swing the door wide open and pray to your Father in secret, and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of God.”

“So exiled have even basic questions of freedom become from the political vocabulary that they sound musty and ridiculous, and vulnerable to the ultimate badge of shame-'That's so 60's!'-the entire decade having been mocked so effectively that social protest seems outlandish and 'so last century,' just another style excess like love beads and Nehru jackets. No, rebellion won't pose a problem for this social order.”
