Things change when you're not in danger anymore. - Mitch Albom

Faith, it is said, is better than belief, because belief is when someone else does the thinking.

The problem, Mitch, is that we don't believe we are as much alike as we are. Whites and blacks, Catholics and Protestants, men and women. If we saw each other as more alike, we might be very eager to join in one big human family in this world, and to care about that family the way we care about our own.
But believe me, when you are dying, you see it is true. We all have the same beginning - birth - and we all have the same end - death. So how different can we be?
Invest in the human family. Invest in people. Build a little community of those you love and who love you.

Dor felt a warm, calming feeling when he said those words — She is my wife — because ever since they were children she was like the sky to him, forever around.
