Quote
The legend of my mom is that she can’t be stopped. Not when you hit her. Not when a whole country full of goons puts her in a cage. Not even if you make her poor and try to kill her slowly in the little-by-little poison of sadness. And the legend is true. I think because she’s fixed her eyes on something beyond the rivers of blood, to a beautiful place on the other side. How else would anybody do it?

Quote
A god who listens is love. A god who speaks is law. At their worst, the people who want a god who listens are self-centered... And the ones who want a god who speaks are cruel. They just want laws and justice to crush everything... Love is empty without justice. Justice is cruel without love... God should be both. If a god isn’t, that is no God.
