"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

Rich Mullins Thoughts...Part I



“We have been travelling around now for about 15-20 years – do I look like it? Everyone always says, ‘You look so tired, can we pray for you?’ I’m like…man, if I didn’t look tired you should pray for me. I would have had to make a deal with the devil to not look tired. I deserve to look this way – I’ve abused myself as much as possible in the last 20 years, which is fine with me. Because I figure sooner or later life is going to kill us all – you might as well go out doing something you love to do, or eat something you like to eat – like cholesterol.”
