What nature delivers to us is never stale. Because what nature creates has eternity in it. - Isaac Bashevis Singer

Doubt is part of all religion. All the religious thinkers were doubters.

There are 500 reasons I write for children.... Children read books, not reviews. They don't give a hoot about the critics.... They don't read to free themselves of guilt, to quench their thirst for rebellion, or to get rid of alienation. They still believe in God, the family, angels, devils, witches, goblins, logic, clarity, punctuation, and other such obsolete stuff.... They don't expect their beloved writer to redeem humanity. Young as they are, they know that it is not in his power. Only the adults have such childish illusions.

If Moses had been paid newspaper rates for the Ten Commandments, he might have written the Two Thousand Commandments.
