• The great God endows His children variously. To some He gives intellect...and they
  move the earth. To some He allots heart...and the beating pulse of humanity is theirs.
  But to some He gives only a soul, without intelligence...and these, who never grow up,
  but remain always His children, are God's fools, kindly, elemental, simple, as if from
  His palette the Artist of all has taken one color instead of many.

• I was always aware, reading Chesterton, that there was someone writing this who rejoiced in words, who deployed them on the page as an artist deploys his paints upon his palette.

• I'm not a young man, and I can find intensity in a lot of different ways, sometimes without even raising my voice. When I was younger, it was all about how I need three extra sets of lungs to get enough wind to get out the thing at the screaming level I need to, because that's the way it needs to be. Now, I see that there's a whole lot of other colors on the palette.
